Shake all ingredients, except ginger beer with ice. Strain into an ice-filled glass, top with ginger beer and garnish.

Five-Spice Syrup: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and 1 cup of granulated sugar with 1 Tbsp. of ground Chinese 5 spice mix. Heat until sugar dissolves, let cool and strain into a clean glass bottle. Cover and keep refrigerated for up to 1 month.
