While there are countless recipes for ginger syrup, we enjoy the simplicity of Orlando Franklin McCray’s, which gets an extra spicy kick from red pepper flakes.

  • 1 part white sugar
  • 1 pinch red pepper flakes (or more, to taste)

Directions
  1. Combine all ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat until dissolved.
