Notes
- To store: Honey ginger syrup, transfer it to a clean, airtight jar or bottle, and refrigerate it. The syrup can last up to a month in the refrigerator, but the flavor may degrade after a week or two.
- To reheat: Remove it from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature. Alternatively, you can heat the syrup gently in a saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally, until it is warmed through. Be careful not to overheat the syrup, which can cause the sugars to caramelize and change the flavor.
