How do you make ginger simple syrup?
Combine 2 cups of water and 2 cups of sugar into a large saucepan and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir it occasionally. Once the sugar is completely dissolved, the solution will be absolutely clear in color. This should take about 3-4 minutes once the mixture begins to boil. While the sugar is dissolving, thinly slice about 7 ounces of fresh ginger with a sharp knife. Once the sugar has completely dissolved in the water, turn the heat down to low and add in the thinly sliced ginger. Allow it to simmer for at least half an hour, and stir it occasionally. Remove it from the heat after half an hour and allow it to cool to room temperature.
