Ingredients
- For The Syrup:
- 1 cup water
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
1-inch piece fresh ginger, (thinly sliced)
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- 3 whole cloves

Instructions
- For the syrup: In a small saucepan, combine the water, sugar, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves over medium heat. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved. Take the pan off the heat and allow the syrup to cool, about 20 minutes. Remove the ginger, cinnamon, and cloves and discard.
