Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lay the fig leaves out on a baking sheet in an even layer so that they are not touching one another. Place the baking sheet in the oven and cook until the leaves dry out and curl up and are still green, about 3 to 5 minutes depending on the heat of your oven and if you're using a convection fan or not. Remove them from the oven and set aside.

In a medium-sized saucepan, bring the water, honey, and sugar to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce heat to low and allow to simmer for 5 minutes, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Remove from heat, add the toasted fig leaves, and stir to combine.

Allow the mixture to infuse as it cools to room temperature (about 90 minutes). Strain, discarding the leaves, and place the fig-leaf-flavored syrup in an airtight container. I use this fluted mason jar: https://amzn.to/3JSfBP0
