=====Simple syrup=====
Simple syrup (also known as sugar syrup, or bar syrup) is a basic sugar-and-water syrup. It is used by bartenders as a sweetener to make cocktails, and as a yeast feeding agent in [[ethanol fermentation]].

The ratio of sugar to water is 1:1 by volume for normal simple syrup, but can get up to 2:1 for rich simple syrup.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://drinks.seriouseats.com/2011/03/cocktail-101-how-to-make-simple-syrup-technique-rich-syrup-recipe.html |title=Cocktail 101: How to Make Simple Syrup |last=Dietsch |first=Michael |website=[[Serious Eats]] |access-date=1 July 2018}}</ref> For pure sucrose the saturation limit is about 5:1 ({{convert|500|g}} sucrose to {{convert|100|ml}} water).
