Step 1

Put water and sugar in a medium saucepan and bring mixture to a boil.

Step 2

Once boiling, lower heat and let simmer for about 10-15 minutes, until sugar is completely dissolved and mixture has thickened a bit.

Step 3

Remove saucepan from heat and add vanilla, butter, and almond extracts and stir.

Step 4

Pour syrup into a mason jar or bowl and place in fridge to cool completely before using. Syrup will continue to thicken as it cools.
