Mint-Ginger Infusion (Syrup)
Finish and Serve
Method
Instructions
- 1
Prepare mint-ginger infusion (syrup)
In a light saucepan, combine granulated sugar and 1 cup water. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, whisking until the sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat, add 1 cup mint leaves (loosely packed) and 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger. Cover and let steep for 15 minutes to extract flavor. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove solids, then stir in 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice. Let the syrup cool completely, then refrigerate until cold.

Assemble each mint-ginger cooler
For each glass, add 2 tablespoons of the mint-ginger syrup. Fill with ice cubes to the rim, then top with 1 cup sparkling water. Stir gently to blend flavors, adjusting sweetness with more syrup if preferred.

Garnish and serve
Garnish each glass with a fresh mint sprig. Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing mint-ginger cooler.
