HOUSE MADE GINGER SYRUP

Trying out something new once again. This time making ginger syrup for some delicious cocktails. 

Ingredients:

• Ginger
• English Cucumber
• Mint
• Demerara Sugar
• Orange Blossom Honey
• Water
• Club Soda
• Bird Eye Pepper (aka Thai Chili Pepper)

Ginger notes are pretty strong. The syrup isn’t as sweet as I expected. A 1:1 ratio of simple syrup to ginger syrup seems ideal to prevent the ginger from overpowering the cocktail. Guess I’ll find out through more experimentation. Hope to post a tasty cocktail with ginger syrup soon.
