Ginger Ale Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ginger Syrup

    Peel and slice the fresh ginger root into thin pieces. In a saucepan, combine the sliced ginger, sugar, and water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes to infuse the ginger flavor.

  2. 2

    Strain the Syrup

    After simmering, remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool slightly. Strain the ginger syrup through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean container to remove the ginger pieces. Allow it to cool completely.

  3. 3

    Mix the Ginger Ale

    In a large pitcher, combine the cooled ginger syrup with lemon juice. Slowly add in the soda water and stir gently to combine. Adjust the sweetness by adding more syrup if desired.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the ginger ale mixture over the ice. Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing homemade ginger ale!
