Notes

Note: The simple syrup called for here is acquired by mixing sugar and water in a saucepan on the stove and heating until the sugar dissolves.  I usually use a 3:2 ratio (by volume, though there's not much difference by weight, so use that if it's all you have) - 1.5 cups sugar to 1 cup water.  I usually just make up a batch and leave it in the fridge - it lasts forever (it has literally lasted me a year without any spoilage).
