Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 inches Fresh ginger root
- 2 stalks Lemongrass stalks
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1 cup Water
- 4 cups Club soda
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 2 cups Ice cubes
- 6 leaves Fresh mint leaves
- 4 slices Lime slices
Instructions
Peel the ginger root and slice it thinly to maximize flavor extraction.
Cut the lemongrass stalks into 2-inch pieces and lightly crush them using the back of a knife to release their oils.
In a small saucepan, combine the sliced ginger, crushed lemongrass, sugar, and 1 cup of water.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the ginger and lemongrass syrup to cool to room temperature.
Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean container, discarding the solids. You should have approximately 3/4 cup of syrup.
In a large pitcher, combine the ginger-lemongrass syrup, club soda, and fresh lime juice. Stir gently to mix.
Fill each serving glass with ice cubes, then pour the soda mixture over the ice.
Garnish each glass with a few fresh mint leaves and a slice of lime.
Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing House of Blues Ginger Lemongrass Soda Water!
