Demerara Syrup
Rich, caramel-like sugar syrup — a great choice for tropical drinks and rum-based cocktails.
1:1 Ratio
Demerara sugar, like Turbinado or "Sugar In The Raw", is a sugar not refined as far as white sugar. Its crystals are larger and it still contains molasses, giving it a wonderfully rich flavor with hints of caramel and sometimes toffee.
Since Demerara sugar is denser and its crystals bigger, it is advisable to make this on the stove. It will require longer exposure to heat to fully dissolve.
Continue stirring over medium high heat, avoiding boiling, until the mixture becomes completely clear and you no longer see sugar crystals.
Refrigerate between uses and it will keep for up to a week.
