Star Anise Simple Syrup
Make the simple syrup by stirring together the sugar and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil for 1 minute. Turn off the heat and add the star anise. Stir and let sit for at least 1 hour.
Strain and discard the star anise before using the syrup in cocktails. Each batch will make about 4 cocktails.
