Ingredients
4 oranges (large and juicy)
50 g ginger
4 cardamom pods 
400 g sugar

Put the sugar and water into a pan and bring to the boil. Wash one orange in lukewarm water and grate the zest with a grater. Then squeeze all the oranges. Wash the ginger and crush it together with the peel. Crush the cardamom pods as well. In the meantime, reduce the sugar water until it is slightly caramelised. Douse with the orange juice, add the crushed ginger and cardamom pods and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Then add the zest and leave to steep for 30 minutes.

This is now the syrup, which you can pour into a cup and top up with hot water to your liking. The perfect drink for cold winter days.
