Lemongrass Simple Syrup

Drink Mixture

Method

Lemongrass Simple Syrup Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lemongrass

    Trim the ends of the lemongrass stalks and remove the outer tough layers. Smash the stalks with a knife to release their essential oils.

  2. 2

    Make the Syrup

    In a saucepan, combine the smashed lemongrass stalks, water, and sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved.

  3. 3

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the lemongrass to infuse its flavor into the syrup.

  4. 4

    Strain and Cool

    Remove the saucepan from heat and strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a jar to remove the lemongrass. Let the syrup cool completely before using.

Drink Assembly

  1. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large mixing glass, combine the lemongrass simple syrup, mango puree, and pineapple juice. Stir well to mix all the ingredients.

  2. 6

    Add Sprite

    Gently add the Sprite to the mixture, stirring lightly to combine without losing too much carbonation.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Pour the mixture into glasses filled with ice. Garnish with a slice of pineapple or a lemongrass stalk if desired.
