Preparation

Combine all of the ingredients in a small saucepot, except for the orange zest, and reduce until ⅓ cup remains; strain and let cool to room temperature. After the syrup has cooled, add the orange zest to infuse Dr. Pepper with the subtle citrus flavor.

Combine the ingredients in a mixing bowl and form into 4 hockey-puck-like objects. On a small sheet tray sprayed with nonstick spray, bake the macaroons at 350 degrees F until lightly golden brown on the edges.

Let rest at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Place the ice cream on top of the macaroons and drizzle with Dr. Pepper and Ginger Syrup.

Serve and enjoy.
