Bring the water and all ingredients to a boil while stirring, then simmer over medium heat for about 40 minutes. Pour the syrup through a sieve and, while still boiling hot, fill a clean, pre-warmed 750 ml bottle to just below the rim. Close the lid immediately and allow to cool. The syrup will keep for about 6 months if stored in a cool, dark place. Once opened, keep the bottle refrigerated and consume promptly. Tip: Add a few slices of ginger to the bottle to intensify the flavor.
