To make the margaritas:

the ice to melt and the mixture to chill. Pour the contents of a shaker into a salt rimmed glass
and enjoy!
To make the ginger syrup:

heat until simmering. Allow to cook for an additional 25 minutes on low heat. Strain the ginger
out of the syrup and chill in a heat proof container until cold.

Only fresh ginger will work for this recipe. Ginger powder, bottled minced ginger, and pickled
ginger are not recommended.
