How to Make Ginger Spice Syrup
- Combine 1 cup water, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup peeled and thinly sliced fresh ginger, 1/4 cup thinly sliced orange peel, 2 whole cloves, and 2 star anise in a medium saucepan.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer gently for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and cover. Let the syrup steep for at least 1 hour, or up to 2 hours for a more intense ginger flavor.
- Carefully strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth-lined strainer into a clean pitcher or jar, pressing on the solids to extract as much syrup as possible.
- Discard the solids.
- Cover the pitcher or jar and refrigerate the syrup for at least 3 hours, or until completely chilled. The flavor will deepen as it cools.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Enjoy! Use your Ginger Spice Syrup to create delicious cocktails, mocktails, or even drizzle it over pancakes or yogurt.
