Gingerbread Syrup

Gingerbread Syrup

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Course Seasonings
Servings 2 cups

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cups brown sugar
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 8 allspice berries
  • 6 cloves whole
  • 1-inch log ginger fresh, (about 40 grams)

Instructions
 

  • In a wide saucepan (medium size), bring to a boil the sugar and water. Stir occasionally to help the sugar melt. Once boiling, reduce the heat and add the spices and ginger that you have peeled and sliced.
  • Simmer for 20 minutes or until the syrup is infused with spices (taste with a spoon to see if you like it. Leave for longer, if needed).

Notes

  • Gingerbread syrup should have similar consistency like maple syrup.
  • Store in a clean jar/bottle sealed with a lid in the fridge. If stored properly, it can last up to 2 weeks.
  • Sterilize jars/bottles if you want to give this as a gift.
  • This recipe should yield about 2 cups of syrup. However, the longer you leave it simmer the more water evaporates so you might get less.
