How to Make Vegan Ginger Soft Drink

  1. In a large, non-reactive pot or bowl, combine the grated ginger, sugar, cloves, and cinnamon sticks.
  2. Pour the boiling water over the mixture. Stir well to ensure the sugar dissolves.
  3. Cover the pot and let it steep in a warm place (ideally in direct sunlight) for at least 60 minutes, or until the ginger flavor has infused strongly.
  4. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth-lined strainer into a large bowl or pitcher, pressing gently on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
  5. Add the orange juice, lemon juice, and 2 cups of additional water to the strained liquid. Stir to combine.
  6. Let the mixture rest in a warm place for another 30-60 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  7. Gently strain the liquid again through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth, discarding the solids. Be careful not to disturb the sediment at the bottom.
  8. Pour the finished ginger drink into a clean glass gallon jar or jug.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to chill thoroughly before serving.
  10. Serve chilled or over ice, either as is, or diluted further with water or sparkling water. Enjoy!
