How to Store & Re-Heat

To store: Simple syrup can be stored in a clean, airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a month. However, it is essential to let the syrup cool to room temperature before transferring it to the container and refrigerating it. If the syrup is not allowed to cool before being stored, it can cause condensation in the container, leading to spoilage or bacterial growth.
