Plus five more ***** I luv Coffee Syrup but hate the price. Its really the only way I can stand milk. And the fact that I can use what ever flavor coffee I like is wonderful. Luv it on ice cream to. Thank you so very much.

Very easy to make - I let the syrup boil down a little bit before pouring the syrup over the coffee. I actually used hazelnut coffee - tasty with chocolate syrup over ice cream. As an alternative, use like espresso and add a little extra kick to your morning coffee - yes, I'm serious (I like my coffee).

This is so wonderful in the summer. Put some in your blender with half and half, a generous amount of Hershey's chocolate syrup and some ice. Throw in some ice and blend away. Yummy! Like your frozen coffee drinks, but half the price. Makes it taste even better!

Thank you very much for this recipe. I made three batches of the recipe and experimented with the results. The best was to use 1 1/4 cups of sugar and as the other comments have said boil for 15 min. The longer you boil though the less the yield since more sticks to the coffee grounds when you strain. I used store brand 100% columbian blend coffee. When I was a teenager (about twenty years ago) my grandmother would go to Road Island every year to visit. When she returned she would bring me a bottle of Autocrat brand coffee syrup. She no longer goes. I ordered a bottle off the internet but with shipping it is very expensive. This recipe is the closest I have tasted to the bottled coffee syrup that grandma use to buy. By the way did anyone know that Coffee Milk (Coffee syrup and milk) is the official state drink of Road Island since 1993. Thanks again to Caryn for posting this, Rick

Very Good! But, Boil the sugar water about 15 min so it is really a syrup.
