Cómo preparar Home Made Velvet Ginger Lemonade
In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup agave nectar (or your preferred sweetener) and 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice. Heat gently over low heat, stirring until the agave is completely dissolved.
Remove from heat and allow the syrup to cool completely.
Once cooled, add the syrup, 1 whole lemon (unpeeled), and 2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger to a blender. Blend until frothy and well combined.
Gradually add 4 cups of chilled water while blending, until you reach your desired consistency. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed.
Pour into glasses filled with ice. Garnish with fresh mint leaves.
For an extra ginger kick, add more grated ginger to taste.
Optional: For an adult twist, add 2 ounces of vodka per serving.
