Simple syrup is a versatile pantry staple and shockingly easy to make. Just combine equal parts water and sugar, then if you like you can infuse it with herbs and spices of your choice. Steeped with rosemary, it works beautifully in holiday cocktails and desserts and is an easy way to add more flavor to the festivities. It makes a perfect edible gift as well.
