Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare Ginger Syrup

    Peel and slice the fresh ginger root. In a saucepan, combine the sliced ginger and water. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat, allowing it to simmer for about 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Sugar

    After simmering, remove the saucepan from heat and strain the ginger-infused water into a bowl. Add granulated sugar to the warm liquid and stir until fully dissolved.

  3. 3

    Cool and Mix

    Let the ginger syrup cool to room temperature. Once cooled, mix in the lemon juice.

  4. 4

    Combine with Carbonated Water

    In a pitcher, combine the ginger syrup with carbonated water. Adjust the sweetness and flavor by adding more syrup or lemon juice to taste.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Fill glasses with ice cubes, pour the ginger ale mixture over the ice, and garnish with lemon slices. Serve immediately.
