Did you know you can make homemade Ginger Chews Simple Syrup? All it takes is gently dissolving the chews in water over heat. Since ginger chews already contain both sugar and bold ginger flavor, this recipe needs just two ingredients and comes together in about 15 minutes.
Add the water and ginger chews candies to a small saucepan. Heat over low to medium-low heat until the candies have dissolved, stirring constantly, about 10 minutes.
Remove from heat. If you have any candy solids, strain them from the syrup. Syrup can be used hot, or let cool, then store in an airtight container in the fridge.
