Notes
Let the syrup cool completely before transferring it to a bottle.
Pineapple ginger syrup thickens slightly as it cools.
Do not use dried or ground ginger as it affects the taste and flavour.
If you do not want your syrup to have a pronounced ginger flavour, cut down the quantity of ginger to reduce the spicy taste of syrup.
The instant pot takes around 8 minutes to build pressure and the timer starts after 8 minutes. So the total cooking time will be 10 minutes. The time an instant pot takes to build pressure might vary depending on the model.
