About the Lemon-Ginger Soda
Lemon and fresh ginger is a classic pairing: the lemon's acidity sharpens ginger's warmth. Slices of fresh ginger in the glass keep the drink lighter and less sweet than ginger beer.
Missing something?
- No lemon juice? Use Lemon (Squeeze fresh: 1 lemon gives about 30 ml)
- No lemon juice? Use Lime Juice (Sharper, different aroma)
- No simple syrup? Use Sugar (1 tsp sugar is about 7.5 ml syrup; stir until dissolved)
- No simple syrup? Use Honey Syrup (Adds honey flavour)
