Gingerbread Simple Syrup
- Start by adding sugar and water to a pot on the stove. Heat on medium heat stirring occasionally until the sugar is melted.
- Then you will add in the cinnamon, molasses, and ginger.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes, until fully mixed well, and you can smell the spices well.
- Store the gingerbread syrup in the fridge in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
Notes
Gingerbread Syrup - You will have leftover gingerbread syrup, and you can use that for flavoring coffee, baking with it, etc.
Jello Shot Storage - Store your shots in the fridge for up to 4-5 days. I find these are best to be eaten within the first 2 days of being made.
