You can sweeten your tea with it; make a lemonade out of it by just squeezing some lemon juice into you glass and adding a bit of the syrup and soda water; add it to your cocktail drinks; serve it as a hot sweet drink; make a milky bubble tea; add a couple of tablespoons to a stir fried meat dish or a marinade or pour over a warm just out of the oven butter cake!
have your bread and eat your curry – all in one! I baked these tasty buns few days ago. You can fill a bun with any kind of filling. If you are a vegetarian, omit the chicken.
