Steps

  1. Whisk the water, both sugars, salt and the split vanilla bean together in a small saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Bring to a gentle simmer, then lower the heat and let it bubble quietly for about 4 minutes, until the syrup is completely clear and no sugar grit is left.
  3. Take the pan off the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Leave the bean in the syrup while it cools — that's where most of the flavour arrives.
  4. Cool the syrup all the way to room temperature, at least 45 minutes. Fish out the vanilla bean (or leave the paste in, if using) and strain into a measuring jug.
  5. Top up with cool water to exactly 240 ml (1 cup). Any surplus goes into a separate jar, undosed.
  6. Pour the 5 ml of tincture into the cooled 240 ml of syrup. Whisk 30 seconds, decant into a bottle, cap it and shake another 10 seconds so every tablespoon carries the same 5 mg.
  7. To serve: measure exactly 1 tablespoon (1/2 oz) with a jigger into one glass of cold brew, an iced latte or a mug of coffee — one tablespoon, one serving. Dose the individual cup, never the carafe or a shared pitcher.
  8. Refrigerate and use within two weeks. Shake before each pour. Label the bottle: Slow Morning Vanilla Coffee Syrup · 50 mg THC total · 5 mg per tablespoon · 10 tablespoons · made [date] · 21+ only.
