2 cups 100% juice, blueberry, pomegranate, or grape

This syrup has many potential uses. It is delicious served over pancakes, French toast, or waffles, especially gingerbread pancakes or waffles during the holidays (just add pumpkin pie spice!) It can be stirred into oatmeal or yogurt. It could also be used as a topping for other desserts. Use a spice ball or small cotton mesh bag and add the ginger slices to it to make it easy to remove them before serving! Hint: using fresh ginger will make all the difference! Do not substitute for powder.
