• servings: 8 servings
• active time: 30 minutes
• total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

7 cups water

10 to 12 teaspoons fresh ginger, peeled and grated (about a 2-inch piece)

1 cup honey

1 cup lemon juice (from 4-5 fresh lemons)

Directions

In a small saucepan, add 1 cup of water, grated ginger, and honey. Cook over medium heat until the honey has dissolved and the mix starts to boil.

Remove the syrup from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Let the mix cool for at least 15 minutes - to allow the ginger to steep with the liquid. Note - The grated ginger will have dissolved a bit, but if you prefer to remove any ginger pieces, strain the mix before adding to your serving pitcher.

In a serving pitcher, add the remaining 6 cups of water and the ginger lemon syrup. Stir to mix. Chill in the refrigerator, or serve immediately over ice. Garnish with a lemon wedge and ginger slice (optional!), and Enjoy!
