Cinnamon syrup with brown sugar

Cinnamon syrup with brown sugar is a sweet and aromatic liquid ingredient that combines the spicy essence of cinnamon with the richness and depth of brown sugar. It is commonly used in dessert recipes, hot beverages, and some traditional dishes to provide a warm, spicy, and slightly caramelized flavor.

This syrup is made by infusing cinnamon sticks into a syrup made with brown sugar and water, giving it a dark color and a viscous texture. Cinnamon is native to Sri Lanka and southern India, but its use has spread globally, being especially popular in Latin American cuisine where it is valued for both its flavor and its properties.

Properties: In addition to its characteristic flavor, cinnamon syrup with brown sugar contains antioxidants from the cinnamon, which can help reduce inflammation and improve digestion. Brown sugar provides a touch of minerals such as calcium, iron, and potassium, albeit in small amounts.

Synonyms in Spanish from Latin America: This ingredient may also be referred to as cinnamon syrup with brown sugar, sweet cinnamon syrup, or simply cinnamon syrup, although in some regions it is specified by including "brown sugar" to differentiate it from syrup made with white sugar or honey.
