Ingredients:

100ml orange juice

½ orange
4 cloves
1 vanilla pod, split in half
1 cinnamon stick
1 bay leaf
1 star anise
2cm fresh root ginger, peeled

Method:

1 Heat the orange juice with the sugar until dissolved.

2 Meanwhile, stud the ½ orange with the cloves and add to the pan with the vanilla pod, cinnamon stick, bay leaf and star anise. Slash the ginger a few times with a knife and add to the pan.
