How to Make Gingerbread Syrup

In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup water, 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons molasses, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, and a pinch of ground nutmeg.
Stir the mixture over medium heat until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld.
(Optional) For a smoother syrup, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth lined strainer into a heatproof container.
Let the syrup cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Enjoy!
