How to Make Icy Lemon Ginger Vodka Cocktails
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water, 1 cup of sugar, and 1/2 cup thinly sliced fresh ginger. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Simmer for 5 minutes, then remove from heat and let the ginger syrup cool completely.
- Transfer the cooled syrup to a blender and puree until smooth.
- Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a large, shallow dish.
- Stir in the zest and juice of 4 lemons.
- Cover and freeze the lemon-ginger syrup until solid, at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Let the frozen lemon-ginger mixture sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to slightly soften.
- Break the frozen mixture into large chunks.
- Combine half of the frozen lemon-ginger mixture, 4 cups of crushed ice, and 1 cup of vodka in a blender. Blend until completely slushy.
- Pour the cocktail into two glasses. Garnish each with a fresh mint sprig and serve immediately.
- Repeat steps 9 and 10 with the remaining frozen lemon-ginger mixture, ice, and vodka.
- Make ahead: The lemon-ginger mixture can be frozen for up to 1 week.
