Great for many things!
You can use 1 scraped vanilla bean instead of vanilla extract.
I made this vanilla syrup to go in my iced caramel macchiato, also from this site. I waited for the sugar syrup to cool a bit before adding the vanilla so as not to destroy the flavour and after tasting, doubled the amount to 2 Tablespoons. This was a quick, easy recipe that didn’t require real vanilla beans, and worked fantastically in my iced coffee. I have plenty left to store in the fridge for next time, so I can avoid the expense and unwanted ingredients in the store-bought coffee syrups. Thanks for the recipe!

I think this would have worked much better had I used a vanilla bean instead of vanilla extract. It was more of a simple syrup than a vanilla syrup. I don't think I will make this again.
