Instructions
- Peel ginger and slice into small pieces no more than ¼ inch thick.
- Add ginger to saucepan with water and honey over medium-high heat and stir until honey is dissolved.
- Bring mixture to a boil then remove from heat. Steep honey ginger syrup for at least 30 minutes, to allow flavor to infuse.
- Strain out ginger pieces and bring honey syrup to room temperature. Seal in an airtight container to store.
Notes
Grab a sharp knife and cutting board to prepare the ginger. Aside from that, you'll only need a saucepan and a spoon. I recommend using a slotted spoon to remove the ginger pieces from the syrup after infusing.
Do I have to refrigerate ginger honey syrup? It depends on who you ask. Some people don't believe you have to refrigerate it since none of the ingredients need refrigeration. This syrup will keep for up to one month in an airtight container in the fridge.
Can I freeze it? Yes. Store in an airtight container for up to six months. Because of the water, honey syrup freezes solid!
