Steps
1
Caramelize the sugar: In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat 2 cups brown sugar over low-medium heat, stirring frequently, for 3-5 minutes until it begins to melt and darken slightly.
2
Add liquid: Carefully pour in 1 cup water (it will bubble vigorously). Stir until sugar dissolves completely and bring mixture to a gentle simmer.
3
Infuse with spices: Add 2 cinnamon sticks, citrus peels, 1/2 teaspoon coriander, and 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg. Continue simmering for 5-10 minutes until the syrup coats the back of a spoon and has reduced slightly.
4
Strain and store: Pour syrup through a fine-mesh strainer into a clean jar, discarding solids. Let cool completely before refrigerating.
5
Serve: For each glass, combine 1 tablespoon syrup with ice and fill with soda water. Stir and adjust sweetness to taste.
