Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients and simmer gently on medium heat.
  2. Simmer for approximate 15-20 minutes until thickened. I didn't want my syrup too thick. I would compare its cooled consistency to heated maple syrup.
  3. Remove from the heat and strain out the chunks of ginger.
  4. Let cool on the counter.
  5. Store in a air-tight jar in the fridge and use within 2 weeks.

Notes

  • Fresh ginger gives this a strong gingerbread flavor, and I highly recommend cooking the chunked ginger with the syrup. 
  • You can use light brown sugar, coconut sugar, or raw sugar instead of dark brown sugar. 
  • Add in some white pepper or peppercorns to the syrup mixture to add a little more heat.
