1
Make the Ginger Syrup
In a medium saucepan, combine the fresh ginger root, sugar, and water. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves.
2
Simmer
Reduce heat and let the mixture simmer for about 30 minutes. This allows the flavors of the ginger to infuse into the syrup.
3
Strain
After simmering, remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool. Once cooled, strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve into a clean container to remove ginger pieces.
4
Mix with Lemon Juice
Stir in the lemon juice into the ginger syrup for added flavor.
5
Combine with Sparkling Water
To serve, mix 1 part of the ginger syrup with 3 parts of club soda or sparkling water in a glass filled with ice. Adjust the ratio according to your taste.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a slice of lemon or mint leaves if desired, and enjoy your refreshing ginger ale!
