  1. 1

    Creating the Base

    In a large pot, combine sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

  2. 2

    Infusing the Flavor

    Once the sugar syrup has cooled, add the herbs, citrus peel, and spices. Stir well to combine and let it steep for at least 24 hours in a cool, dark place.

  3. 3

    Straining the Mixture

    After steeping, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove solids. Press down to extract as much liquid as possible.

    Bottling and Aging
