Tip # 55 Drowning in Maple Syrup


Compare the amount of calories and sugar in different syrup options.

Homemade Syrup: 180 Calories, 44 Grams of Sugar
Bottled Syrup: 200 Calories, 33 Grams of Sugar
Jam: 112 Calories, 20 Grams of Sugar
“Sugar Free” Homemade Syrup 0 Calories, 0 Grams of Sugar

Try making the sugar free version
Combine:
2 cups boiling water
2 cups Splenda no-calorie sweetener
½ teaspoon Mapleine flavoring

I plan trying this syrup sometime and get back to you on how good it is!

To quote Elf: Emily: You like sugar, huh? Buddy: Is there sugar in syrup? Emily: Yes. Buddy: Then YES
