A refreshing and tangy drink combining the zest of lemons with the warmth of ginger, perfect for any occasion.
Mash the lemon slices, grated ginger, honey, and salt in a large bowl using a potato masher until the lemons release their juice and the mixture becomes syrupy.
Ensure the lemons are at room temperature to extract the maximum juice.
Strain the mixture through a sieve into a serving pitcher, pressing the solids to extract all the liquid.
Use a fine-mesh sieve for a smoother drink.
Add the cold water to the pitcher and stir well to combine.
Taste and adjust the sweetness or tartness by adding more honey or lemon juice.
Chill the drink in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Serve over ice for an extra refreshing experience.
Serve the drink in glasses over ice and garnish with lemon slices or mint leaves.
For a festive touch, use decorative glasses or add a colorful straw.
