Sparkling Ginger Zen
Ingredients:
- 2 inches of fresh ginger root
- 1 liter of sparkling water
- 2 teaspoons of honey or agave syrup (for a vegan version)
- Juice of one lime
- Ice cubes
- Lime slices and fresh mint leaves for garnish
Instructions:
- Begin by preparing the ginger. Peel and finely grate it. You should end up with about a tablespoon of grated ginger.
- Add the grated ginger into a small bowl. Pour over the honey or agave syrup, then mix well until the honey or syrup has combined with the ginger.
- Next, add the ginger and honey mixture into a large jug. Squeeze in the juice from the lime and stir until the ingredients are well mixed.
- Pour the sparkling water into the jug. Stir gently to combine the flavors without losing the effervescence of the water.
- To serve, fill glasses with ice cubes. Pour the mocktail over the ice, ensuring each glass gets some of ginger bits for extra flavor.
- Garnish each glass with a lime slice and a few fresh mint leaves.
- Stir gently before each sip to ensure the flavors are well-distributed, and enjoy your sparkling ginger Zen!
Please note: adjust the sweetness or tartness by adding more honey/agave syrup or lime juice as per your taste preference. You can also add more sparkling water if you find the ginger flavor too strong.
