Equipment
- grater
- small sauce pan
- Stove top
- handheld juicer
- mesh strainer
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
- 1 cup cold filtered water
- 1-2 lemons juiced
- 1-2 tablespoons raw honey
- 1 cup ice
- 1 splash plain seltzer water
Instructions
- Grate 2 teaspoons of fresh ginger and add to a small sauce pan with 1 cup of cold, filtered water. Place on stove top on high heat until water begins to boil. Once water boils, turn off heat, cover and let steep for 10 minutes.
- While ginger is steeping begin juicing your lemon(s). Add your lemon juice to a large glass along with 1-2 tablespoons of raw honey. I personally thought 1.5 tablespoons was perfect, but you can add or subtract.
- After 10 minutes, pour your ginger water through a mesh strainer into your glass with lemon juice and honey. Stir with a spoon until honey is dissolved. Immediately add ice and a splash of seltzer water and enjoy!
