Instructions

Combine the sugar, water, and broken cinnamon sticks in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Stir until the sugar dissolves completely, then bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer gently for 10 minutes, allowing the cinnamon to infuse the syrup.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the pure vanilla extract.
Let the syrup cool to room temperature with the cinnamon sticks still in the syrup for extra flavor, about 10 minutes.
Remove the cinnamon sticks and strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve to remove any residue.
Transfer the syrup to a clean jar or bottle and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks. Reheat slightly before use if desired.

Tips

Use high-quality pure vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste to enhance the syrup's flavor depth.
Simmer gently to avoid boiling off the vanilla's delicate aroma and to keep the syrup clear and smooth.
