About Ginger syrup

Ginger syrup is a sweet liquid made by infusing or cooking ginger in a sugar-based liquid, though recipes and commercial formulations vary. It is typically glossy and pourable, with a ginger aroma and sweetness balanced by warm, pungent notes.

It is used to sweeten and flavour drinks, sauces, and desserts, and may be strained clear or contain ginger solids. Some versions are thin, while others are concentrated or thick; fresh ginger, dried ginger, added flavourings, and the sugar-to-liquid ratio influence the finished product.
