- Prepare the Ingredients: Start by juicing the lemons until you have one cup of juice. Grate the fresh ginger — you’ll want about two tablespoons.
- Infuse the Ginger: In a small saucepan, combine the grated ginger with 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil, then simmer for about 5 minutes to let the ginger infuse the water. This creates a strong ginger concentrate.
- Strain: After simmering, strain the ginger water through a fine mesh sieve into a large pitcher. This will remove the ginger solids and leave you with a clear, flavorful liquid.
- Mix the Lemonade: To the ginger-infused water, add the lemon juice, the remaining 3 cups of cold water, and sweetener to taste. Stir well until all the ingredients are fully combined.
- Chill and Serve: Add plenty of ice to the pitcher and stir. Slice a few more lemons for garnish and add them to the pitcher along with some fresh mint leaves.
- Enjoy: Serve the ginger lemon juice in glasses over more ice, garnished with a slice of lemon and a sprig of mint.
