Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon (21 grams) raw honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 1 teaspoon (5 grams) fresh grated ginger root
- 1 cup (240 ml) cold sparkling water
Instructions
- Juice 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of fresh lemon juice and 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of fresh lime juice into a mixing glass.
- Grate about 1 teaspoon (5 grams) of fresh ginger directly into the glass.
- Add 1 tablespoon (21 grams) of raw honey and stir thoroughly until dissolved.
- Slowly pour in 1 cup (240 ml) of cold sparkling water and stir lightly to combine.
- Serve immediately in a tall glass filled with ice if desired.
Notes
Dissolve honey in citrus juices before adding sparkling water to avoid clumping. Add sparkling water last and pour gently to maintain fizz. For stronger ginger flavor, let mixture sit 5-10 minutes before adding sparkling water. Best served immediately for maximum fizz.
