Good to know

Chef's tip

For an even more refreshing version, steep the ginger in a little hot water for 5 minutes, let it cool, then use this concentrate in the recipe. It will bring out the flavor without the heat being too intense! 🌿

Freezing : Can you freeze this recipe?

Not recommended

The carbonation and texture would be affected.

Storage : How long does it keep?

The concentrated base (ginger, lemon, honey) keeps 3 to 4 days max in an airtight container in the fridge. Add the sparkling water, ice and mint at serving time to keep it fizzy.

Making ahead : Can you make it the day before?

Yes

Make the concentrated base the day before, then mix with the sparkling water, ice and mint just before drinking.

Reheating : How do you reheat it?

Not applicable, cold drink.

Variations

Add gin for a cocktail version.
Replace the honey with agave syrup.
Serve with a straw.

Mistakes to avoid

Using lukewarm sparkling water: use it ice cold.
Stirring vigorously: stir gently with a long spoon to keep the bubbles.
Grating the ginger too coarsely: use a microplane grater.
