Notes
Cooking and storing Tips:
Wear gloves as handling jalapeno may bring a burning sensation to the hands of someone.
You may also add jalapenos as a whole for the mild flavor and mild heat.
Always choose a bottle to store this hot pepper syrup, as it is convenient to pour or drizzle. It also indirectly increases the shelf life.
Once the syrup reaches the room temperature, store it in the refrigerator. It stays good for a month.
