Ginger Spice Syrup

2 cups water
2 cups sugar
3 tablespoons grated peeled fresh ginger
3 cinnamon sticks
3 whole star anise pods
Pinch of ground nutmeg

Mix 2 cups water and 2 cups sugar in a medium saucepan.  Bring ingredients to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring, until sugar dissolves.  Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.  Remove from heat; cover and let steep for 1 hour.  Strain syrup into a small pitcher; discard solids in strainer.  Cover and refrigerate syrup until cold, about 3 hours.  (Can be made 1 week ahead.  Keep chilled.)
