Put all three ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally until the sugar granules have dissolved.
Once the sugar has dissolved, reduce the heat to medium-low and reduce until there is only about 1 cup of thickened liquid, about an hour.
Remove from heat and allow to cool completely before using or storing.
