How to Make Sparkling Homemade Ginger Ale
- In a large mason jar, combine 8 cups of water, 1 cup sugar, and 1/2 cup thinly sliced fresh ginger.
- Stir well to dissolve the sugar.
- Add the juice of 2 limes and 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon (optional).
- Securely cap the jar and gently shake to mix.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours, to allow the ginger flavors to infuse fully. The longer it sits, the stronger the ginger flavor will be.
- Once chilled, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth-lined strainer into a pitcher or individual glasses, pressing gently on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.
- For extra fizz, before serving add 1 cup of chilled sparkling water or club soda.
- Garnish each glass with a cinnamon stick or a lime wedge, if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
