Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Fresh ginger root
- 1 large Fresh lemon
- 1 medium Fresh lime
- 60 ml Honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
- 1 liter Sparkling water
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 5 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the fresh ginger root and cut it into small chunks for easier juicing.
Feed the ginger chunks into a juicer to extract the juice. You should yield approximately 1/4 cup (60 ml) of ginger juice.
Juice the lemon and lime separately and discard the seeds. You should have around 50 ml of combined citrus juice.
In a small bowl or cup, mix the ginger juice, lemon-lime juice, and honey (or maple syrup) until fully combined.
Fill a pitcher with the ice cubes, then pour in the juice mixture.
Slowly add the sparkling water to the pitcher, stirring gently to mix everything without losing too much carbonation.
Taste the ginger ale and adjust sweetness by adding more honey or maple syrup if desired.
Serve immediately, pouring into individual glasses and garnishing with fresh mint leaves if desired.
