Honey Ginger Syrup (Ginger Tea) Honey Ginger Syrup (Ginger Tea)
Up until recently, I had just been soaking ginger in honey, but my aunt taught me how to make ginger syrup.The amount of sugar used to make the candied ginger should be 20% the weight of the original amount of ginger used when making syrup.Adding 1 teaspoon lemon juice to the syrup makes it taste delicious (for ginger tea and sweets), but since the syrup can also be used for cooking, I decided that it's best to leave it out.Even after 1 day of soaking the ginger will produce a lot of extract, but don't be impatient! Allow the ginger to slowly soak for 5 days. It will result in a mildly spicy delicious syrup.While soaking in Step 3, give the jar a shake from time to time to dissolve the honey.In Step 5, remove the scum when simmering.
