Ingredients
- 6 whole Fresh lemons
- 2 inches Fresh ginger root
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 6 cups Water
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 4 sprigs Mint leaves
Directions
Step 1
Peel the ginger and grate it finely using a microplane or a fine grater.
Step 2
In a small pot, combine 1 cup of water, the granulated sugar, and the grated ginger. Bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Simmer for 5 minutes to infuse the ginger flavor. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool to room temperature. Strain to remove the ginger pulp if preferred.
Step 3
Juice the lemons, ensuring no seeds are in the juice, and set aside.
Step 4
In a large pitcher, combine the cooled ginger syrup, fresh lemon juice, honey, and 5 cups of water. Stir well until the honey is fully dissolved.
Step 5
Add ice cubes to the pitcher for a chilled result and stir again to incorporate.
Step 6
Pour the lemonade into glasses and garnish each with a sprig of fresh mint for an aromatic touch.
Step 7
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade velvet ginger lemonade!
