How to Make Ginger Lemonade
- Peel and finely grate 1/2 cup of fresh ginger.
- In a small saucepan, combine the grated ginger with 1/2 cup of water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Strain the ginger mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a bowl, pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.
- Add 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and the juice of 2 limes to the ginger concentrate.
- Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more sugar if needed.
- Pour the ginger lemonade concentrate into a clean bottle or jar. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- To serve, add 1-2 tablespoons of the concentrate to each glass filled with chilled water or club soda.
- Stir well and serve over ice in a tall glass. Garnish with a fresh mint sprig.
