  Follow this by 2 strainings through slightly dampened cheesecloth. For true clarity and professional looking results, pour the strained mixture through a large clean coffee filter placed inside a funnel or clean coffee cone. Loosely cover the contents with plastic wrap, since the process may take several hours.

  Funnel the strained spice mixture into a glass bottle, then funnel in the sugar syrup. Cork tightly. Shake to blend. Let mature at room temperature or slightly cooler for at least 1 week.
