You can turn 1 ½ cups of coconut sugar into simple syrup with just 1 cup of water and 1 cup of coconut sugar. Simply combine the water and coconut sugar in a saucepan, then bring to a low boil over medium heat. Once the sugar has fully dissolved, cool the syrup and store it in a jar or airtight container. This syrup will last for six months and is a much better sweetener for drinks and beverages than regular coconut sugar.
