1 cup maple syrup

2 tbsp. grated ginger

¼ cup brown sugar

 1/3 cup lemon juice

 

Bring all ingredients to a boil over med-high heat in a shallow, heavy-bottomed saucepan, reduce heat to a simmer, and stir frequently to prevent scorching.

once sauce visibly reduces, bubbles get larger, and it reaches 220 degrees for a few minutes, pour into clean, sterilized 250 ml mason jars, wipe rims clean, apply lid tightly, and refrigerate.
