MYO Flavored Syrups and keto-friendly skinny flavored syrups with this simple recipe. If you can boil water, you can make your own in delicious flavored syrup in less than ten minutes. These homemade flavored syrups are perfect for drinks, cocktails, slushies, and dessert toppings.
MYO Flavored Syrups
Base Ingredients:
2-1/2 cups sugar or splenda or nutrasweet
1-1/4 cups water
Flavoring Choice: Choose 1:
- 1 tbsp. lemon juice
- 1-2 tbsp. orange blossom water
- Rosewater
- 5 drops Any kind Flavoring Oils: peppermint, spearmint, orange, lemon, crème de menthe, vanilla, anise and chocolate flavors (Flavoring oils can often be found in the baking aisle near the cake frostings)
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar and water together, stirring often until the sugar is completely dissolved. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until it thickens to the same consistency as maple syrup. Remove from heat and add the flavorings of your choice.
The flavor possibilities are nearly endless! Once the syrup has cooled, pour it into a bottle, cap, and store in the refrigerator for up to 30 days.
To use them, simply mix the flavored syrup with water to the desired sweetness. We like ours with just 1 Tbs or so per glass and then add fresh sliced fruit or berries.
MYO Skinny Keto Syrups
You’ll Need:
3/4 cup Bochasweet or 1 cup Allulose
1/2 tsp Glucomannan powder
1 cup water
pinch salt
1 tsp flavoring (vanilla, banana, Mapleine, strawberry, peach, hazelnut, pumpkin spice etc…)
Optional Ingredient: Pinch of Citric Acid powder or 1/4 tsp lemon juice.
In a medium saucepan combine water, sweetener and citric acid (if using) over low heat, stirring until the sweetener is fully dissolved. Sprinkle the Glucomannan powder over the top, stirring until it fully dissolves. Remove from heat and add one teaspoon of flavoring of your choice. Taste test, if the flavor isn’t quite strong enough, add more 1/4 teaspoon at a time until it reaches the desired level.
Store in the fridge in a sealed jar for 2-4 weeks (if you’ve added citric acid or lemon juice) otherwise use with 7-10 days.

“in a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar and water together, stirring often until the sugar is completely dissolved. bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until it thickens to the same consistency as maple syrup. remove from heat and add the flavorings of your choice.”
a set of these would make a great gift. three bottles of syrup and a can of coffee would be easily equal in value to a $50 gift certificate to Starbucks.
can vanilla extract be used instead of vanilla oil? if so, about how much would be needed.
going to have to try this. looks like it would be great. question can you use kool-aide to flavor it?
has anyone tried this? let me know. thanks.

I have made mint syrup for iced tea before with fresh mint and dried mint. Both are equally tasty, though the syrup from dried mint is greener than the fresh. I also can it to use during the year ans I do drink iced tea all year now that I gave up sodas.
