Peel and finely grate the fresh ginger to yield approximately 2 tablespoons.
In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and the grated ginger. Bring it to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes to create a ginger infusion.
Strain the ginger-infused water through a fine mesh strainer into a heat-safe bowl or measuring cup to remove the ginger solids. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large pitcher, whisk together the fresh lime juice and honey until the honey dissolves completely.
Add the ginger-infused water to the pitcher along with the remaining 3 cups of cold water. Stir well to combine.
Fill serving glasses with ice cubes and pour the honey ginger limeade over the ice.
Garnish with lime slices and fresh mint leaves, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
