Gingery Limeade Recipes

HOMEMADE GINGER LIMEADE

Steps:

• Place the 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water in a saucepan and heat over medium heat to dissolve the sugar. Bring to a simmer. Once all the sugar has dissolved and the syrup starts to boil, set it aside to cool.
• Place the 3 oz fresh ginger and 1 tbsp water (upto 3 tbsp) in a mini processor, and pulse until well blended and pureed. Strain the ginger juice through a sieve, pressing down on the pulp to get the most out of the ginger. Set aside ¼ cup of this ginger juice.
• Alternatively, if you have a juicer, juice enough ginger to get 3 tbsp of pure ginger juice.
• Mix the ginger and salt with the 1.5 cups of lime juice. Add up to 1 - 1.5 cups of sugar syrup to sweeten the ginger lime juice (change the amount of sugar you add according to your tastes).
• Pour into a clean bottle/jar with a closeable cap and leave in the fridge to chill until needed.
