I have been experimenting with soda syrups recently, and I wanted to try out a jalapeño based syrup. Jalapeños have a great level of spice and a bright, vegetal flavor. The combination of the jalapeño flavor and the sweet syrup creates a refreshing drink when mixed with soda water. Enjoy with spicy food or on a hot afternoon — the heat of the peppers actually cools you down!

Jalapeño Soda Syrup

Ingredients:

  • 4 jalapeños, seeds and white membrane removed

  1. Prepare jalapeños. Slice in half, seed and remove membrane, and score on the diagonal.
  2. Add sugar and water to a small saucepan.
  3. Add jalapeños.
  4. Bring to simmer over medium heat.
  5. Cook until the liquid has reduced to half, about 1o minutes.
