This rich ginger syrup has a very concentrated flavour and a rich golden colour. It’s also so easy to make! Donatello and I made two large mason jars of it and found ourselves adding it to just about everything: tea, cocktails, and even salad dressings.
Homemade Ginger Syrup
Ingredients
- 2 cups white sugar
- 1.5 cupswater
- one hand of ginger (mine was about 120 grams)
Instructions
- Wash and slice the ginger into thick slices.
- Pour the sugar and water in a small pot and place over medium heat.
- Add the ginger and mix occasionally, bringing mixture to a boil.
- When sugar dissolves, turn heat lower and simmer mixture for thirty minutes to release the flavours. Remove heat and allow mixture to cool.
- Once cooled, cover and place in the refrigerator. Steep this concoction over night.
- Strain mixture into a sterilized mason jar and seal tightly. Store in refrigerator.
This mixture should keep a few months if kept cool in the fridge, but you will probably use it up much sooner than that.
Bet this would be good with maple syrup!
