Just make more ginger syrup and candied ginger and then make candied 
lemon peel.

I just keep putting in ginger until I get bored, you know? 4-5" is a 
very rough measurement. Try the syrup and if you like it, just make 
more. You can also use light vinegar instead of the lemon juice if you 
want-- cider vinegar works.
