How to Make Gingery Limeade

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup grated fresh ginger, 1/4 cup lime juice, and 1/4 cup water until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  2. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher to remove any ginger solids.
  3. Add 2 1/2 cups of cold water and 1 1/2 cups of lime juice to the pitcher.
  4. Stir gently to combine.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the drink to chill thoroughly.
  6. Serve over ice. Garnish with lime wedges or ginger slices, if desired.
