How Long Do Homemade Simple Syrups Last?
Homemade simple syrups typically last for about 1 month when stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. However, flavored syrups may have a shorter shelf life and should be used within 1-2 weeks. If there are any signs of mold or fermentation, discard the syrup immediately. It is recommended to label homemade syrups with the date they were made to ensure freshness and safety.
