Ginger Lemonade

I can’t get enough of this ginger lemonade! After making a batch ginger simple syrup the other day, I wanted to try to experiment with using it in different recipes and the first thing I tried was ginger lemonade.  This drink is so good! Light and refreshing, ginger lemonade tastes like summer in a glass.  I love the bit of zing that the ginger gives to the lemonade while also not being over powering.

Now this recipe makes about 4-6 servings but you can always double or even triple it if you are making it for a group.  I suggest tasting it as you go and adjusting it to your preference as there is such a wide variety of preference for lemonade with some liking it to be more tart while others preferring it to be sweeter.  Regardless of how much of each ingredient you use, it is bound to be a delicious treat!

Common Questions About Making Ginger Lemonade

What is ginger lemonade?

Ginger lemonade is a drink made with lemonade and ginger simple syrup.  The lemonade is made by combining fresh lemon juice and water with a batch of ginger simple syrup.

Should I use homemade lemonade or pre-made lemonade?

You can use whichever you prefer.  If you have a pre-made lemonade that you love or you just don’t want to deal with making the lemonade from scratch, that is totally fine! Just combine 6 cups of that with the ginger simple syrup.

What else can I add I add to ginger lemonade?

You can always add in other pureed fruits such as peaches.  I like to serve the drink over ice with a slice of lemon and sprig of mint for a pop of color.

• Strawberry Lemonade
