Syrup breathing dragon
Fun name for a simple syrup that can top pancakes or waffles. But don't stop there. Make that store bought angel food cake a blast, a dragonfruit blast. And while you're at it, top that fro-yo with a blast of dragonfruit syrup. Simple to make, tops just about everything, and stores in the refrigerator for quick access.
