Flavored Syrup
Sweet flavoring syrup for coffees, sodas, and desserts
Sweet and aromatic, flavored syrups like vanilla and caramel customize a latte, flavor a soda, and drizzle over desserts. A pump goes a long way. Keep it at room temperature.
Flavored syrups are sweet, concentrated syrups infused with a flavor — vanilla, caramel, hazelnut, mint, fruit, and beyond — built to stir instantly into cold or hot drinks. They're the coffeehouse secret behind vanilla lattes and flavored sodas, and a fast way to flavor cocktails, lemonades, desserts, and pancakes at home. Most are a simple-syrup base carrying natural or artificial flavoring, so a small pour delivers both sweetness and aroma.
