How to Make House Of Blues Ginger Lemongrass Soda Water
- Combine 1 cup of water and 1 cup of sugar in a medium saucepan.
- Stir until the sugar completely dissolves over medium heat.
- Add 4 stalks of lemongrass (lightly bruised), 1 cup thinly sliced fresh ginger, 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice, and 1 vanilla bean, split and scraped.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Remove from heat, cover the saucepan, and let the mixture steep overnight in the refrigerator to fully extract the flavors.
- Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh strainer into a clean container, pressing on the solids to extract all the liquid. Discard the solids.
- To serve, fill a chilled cocktail shaker halfway with the ginger lemongrass syrup.
- Top the shaker with an equal amount of chilled soda water.
- Gently shake to combine (do not over shake).
- For an elegant touch, rim glasses with sugar before pouring. Strain the mixture into the prepared glasses and serve immediately over ice. Garnish with a lemon wedge or lemongrass stalk if desired.
