Ingredients

• 12 oz chopped ginger (skin on or off, it makes no difference)
• 8 cups water
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tsp powdered stevia
• 1/4 cup lime juice
• 1/4 cup lemon juice
• 1 tsp kosher salt

Directions

1. Chop the ginger and add to a mason jar with 1-2 cups of water. Use an immersion blender to blend the ginger until it is in small bits to maximize the flavour.
2. Add the remaining water to a large pot along with the sugar, salt, ginger/water blend, and lemon/lime juice.
3. Bring to boil then simmer for 1 hour with the lid on.
4. The resulting product will not be syrup consistency but is concentrated. Add the tsp of powdered stevia and portion into containers to refrigerate.
5. Mix 1/4 cup of “syrup” with 1 1/2 cups of sparkling water.
