DIY Candy Cane Simple Syrup-1DIY Candy Cane Simple Syrup

No need to shell out a bunch of cash for the fancy store-bought stuff! This DIY Candy Cane Simple Syrup is low-cost and SO easy to make. You’re literally just melting candy canes in hot water. Bottle up a whole bunch and gifts to friends and family this holiday season! Use it:

  • in your lattes and hot chocolate
  • on your pancakes
  • drizzled over ice cream
  • as a cocktail mixer

You can get your glass bottles (like I did) at The Dollar Store and spruce them up with these gold spouts. Use your Cricut (or Avery on your printer) to make cute candy cane labels. You could also do mini bottles of the syrup (I LOVE using these for gifting) and pair it with hot chocolate mix and homemade marshmallows. Makes for a nice neighbour or teacher gift!

DIY Candy Cane Simple Syrup-2You’ll Need:

  • 12 regular-sized candy canes
  • One cup of water
  • Funnel
  • Air-tight glass jar (preferably with a pretty spout)

DIY Candy Cane Simple Syrup-3Directions:

  • Break candy canes into small pieces
  • Place all candy canes pieces into a pot with the water
  • Bring to a low simmer over medium heat, stirring consistently
  • Continue to stir for about another minute or until all of your candy canes have liquefied
  • Remove from heat and cool completely
  • Use your funnel to pour the syrup into a glass jar with a spout

First time going to Disney? We got so much great a First time going to Disney? We got so much great advice and awesome tips for how to maximize our first time at the park as a family.

➡️ The number one thing I want to pass along is to allow breathing room in your days there. Don't overplan it. Try not to be SO scheduled that you miss the magic. ✨️

Of course you want to have a general plan of the rides you want to hit, your strategy for tackling the pack, etc. but leave space so when suddenly Goofy is walking down the street and your kiddo wants a photo - you have time. 

➡️ Book your hotel and park passes ahead of time for sure. Reserve a character dinner too (we booked ours the day before and got the last spot). 

There are a lot of to-the-minute schedules you'll find out there for how to hit every ride and try all the food in record time but for a family with young kids, I don't recommend it. Just go with the flow and have fun! 🤗

➡️ Make sure to head a few reels back and see how we surprised our seven-year-old with the trip! Ask any questions below. ❤️ Like and save this post if it was helpful for you.

More Disney tips coming to my Reels feed and KariSkelton.com this week!
