Notes

  • Storage: To store the brown sugar syrup, remove the cinnamon stick, transfer to an airtight container, and refrigerate for up to 7 days.
  • Brown Sugar Syrup: Instead of making the brown sugar syrup, you can purchase it as a coffee syrup or melt 1 tablespoon of brown sugar directly in your hot espresso
