1
Prepare the Base
In a medium saucepan, bring the 2 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and stir in the honey until fully dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool.
2
Mix Lemon Juice
Once the honey-water mixture has cooled, add the 1 cup of fresh lemon juice. Stir well to combine.

3
Add Flavor Enhancements
In a pitcher, add the fresh mint leaves and sliced ginger. Pour the lemon-honey mixture over the mint and ginger.
4
Chill
Let the mixture sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. If desired, strain out the mint leaves and ginger slices before serving.

5
Serve
Fill a glass with ice cubes, pour the chilled beverage over the ice, and garnish with additional mint leaves if desired.
