Gingerbread Syrup
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.
