Maple Syrup

1 cup water
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 - 1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp maple flavor

In a saucepan, combine sugar and water. Cook over medium heat and stir until sugar is dissolved, simmer 3 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in vanilla and maple flavoring. Tastes best after the first day. Refrigerate, fits perfect in an old maple syrup jar.

This also works great with just white sugar and orange extract, though you need to add more than 1/2 tsp. I'm sure you could use it with any flavor to make great syrup!
