To prepare the syrup: In a small saucepan bring one cup of water to a boil and then drop to a simmer, add the sugar, Noga, and ginger (if using) and stir well. Simmer for 15 minutes, then strain through a coffee filter and store in a clean bottle. Allow to cool, then store in the refrigerator for up to a month.
For the cocktail: In a collins glass combine the lime juice, syrup, and rhum and stir well. Fill with ice cubes, then ginger beer or seltzer, and add a couple dashes of angostura. Stir gently with a straw and garnish with a lime wheel dipped in Aleppo pepper.
