Vanilla Caramel Syrup - For Coffee Or Espresso - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups sugar
    1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
    2 cups hot water (from your tap)
    2 vanilla beans
    6 teaspoons vanilla extract
    6 teaspoons caramel extract
Preparation
    Slice vanilla beans lengthwise with a sharp knife, use sharp edge of knife to scrape out the inside of the bean against the cutting board.
    Put the scrapings and the outer beans in a sauce pan.
    Put all other ingredients in the pan and heat on low stirring often for about 10 minutes.
    Turn heat up to medium for a few more minutes (3-5) stirring constantly.
    Do not boil.
    Filter your hot syrup through a Melitta and coffee filter or through a strainer and cheese cloth.
    This is to remove the bean skins and any sediment.
    Cool syrup and pour into a tall glass bottle, an old wine bottle or empty coffee syrup bottles work great and are the right size.
