How to Make Refreshing Ginger Lemonade

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of water, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup thinly sliced fresh ginger.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
  3. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the syrup thickens slightly and the ginger is fragrant.
  4. Remove the saucepan from the heat and carefully remove the ginger slices using a slotted spoon.
  5. Let the ginger syrup cool completely.
  6. In a large pitcher, whisk together the cooled ginger syrup, 1 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice, and 4 cups of cold water.
  7. Add lemon slices for extra flavor and visual appeal.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled over ice.
