• Sake lees (sakekasu)100 g
• Water800 cc (4 cups)
• Sugar70 g
• Salta pinch

1. 1

   Pour 800 cc of water into a pot and heat over medium heat until it boils. Turn off the heat and add 100 g of sake lees broken into bite-sized pieces. Let it sit for 10 minutes.

2. 2

   Once the sake lees have softened, return the pot to medium heat and stir continuously until the sake lees dissolve completely and the mixture comes to a boil.

3. 3

   Once boiling, add 70 g of sugar and a pinch of salt. Stir well and bring to a brief boil to finish.

Using high-quality sake lees will enhance the flavor. For a more aromatic version, grate fresh ginger and add it to taste. Alternatively, add shredded kombu seaweed for a nice flavor accent.
