Homemade Teriyaki sauce

Ingredients
1 cup water
5 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1–2 tablespoons honey
1 large clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup water
Steps:
Combine the 1 cup water, brown sugar, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and ginger in a medium saucepan and set over medium heat.
In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch with the 1/4 cup water and whisk until dissolved. Add the cornstarch mixture to the saucepan.
Heat the sauce until it thickens to your desired thickness. If the sauce becomes too thick, add more water to thin it out
