Question: what exactly are capers? Some sort of berry? I always thought they were related to fish somehow. I’m glad to finally get a look at some!
Capers are the unripened flower buds of Capparis spinosa plant. 🙂
Can someone please direct me to find a way to make homemade sugarfree syrup to make lattes (vanilla, hazelnut, etc.), everywhere I look its the kind that has Splenda. And to Wenchypoo. the reason you probably relate it to fish is capers are used a lot in recipes like Lox bagels :). I personally do not care for them, but I know a lot of people who do and even enjoy them plain.
You can use any latte syrup recipe and sub erythritol and stevia, or Swerve for the Splenda or sugar.
This one is great! 🙂

Thanks Maria! Besides the great recipe, in that link you talked about vitamins to take instead of the flu shot. We all can use a reminder about those at this time 🙂 Thanks for the caring and encouragement you are to so many of us.
Thank you Donna!
Margarita,
I have been trying to make a simple syrup with Swerve for the last 4 months. I haven’t had much success with it becoming clear after boiling simmering and stirring for 10 mins.
I love my “healthy pumpkin chai tea”
I’ve tried both the Swerve granulated and confectioners.
Maria, Any ideas?
Happy New Year!
This sounds perfect for our little New Year’s Eve party tonight. Thanks!
Thanks and happy new years! 🙂
