Coconut Syrup (Joycelyn)

7-8 Tb. butter
3/4 c. buttermilk
1 c. sugar
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp coconut extract

Place butter, buttermilk and sugar in a large pot. Then turn stove on medium and stir until butter melts and sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil and boil one minute.(if you want a thicker syrup cook a little longer) Remove from heat and add soda and flavoring. It will bubble up; just continue to stir and give it a few minutes for the 'fizz' to reduce before serving.
