Notes
Preparation
You can make cinnamon syrup up to six days in advance.
Storage
Store in an airtight container and refrigerate to keep for up to two weeks.
You can store the syrup with or without the cinnamon stick. Just keep an eye on it, as mold can develop on it if stored too long.
Note that when freezing, the syrup will likely become very thick instead of freezing completely solid. This is because of the high sugar content. Store in a freezer safe food storage container.
