Spicy Lemon Ginger Iced Brew Recipe

Overview:

Move over lemon zinger… this brew is quite a stinger! Serve this on the rocks on a summer day or modify the recipe and serve it piping hot on an autumn evening with a slice of gingerbread or pumpkin pie. This can also be adapted into a tea to ease a queasy stomach by omitting the lemon and simply using the brewed ginger tea, hot or cold, to sip. Ginger is renowned for its ability to calm stomach sickness.

2. Infuse Ginger: Stir in the fresh ginger into the boiling water, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors of the ginger to infuse into the water.

3. Strain Mixture: After simmering, strain the ginger-infused water through a cheesecloth-lined sieve into a clean pitcher. Make sure to press on the ginger caught by the cheesecloth to extract as much liquid as possible, ensuring a robust flavor in the brew.

4. Sweeten with Honey: Stir the honey into the ginger brew until it dissolves completely. Then, set the mixture aside to cool, allowing the flavors to meld together.

5. Add Lemon Juice: Just before serving, stir in the lemon juice into the cooled ginger brew. This adds a zesty and refreshing citrusy twist to the beverage.

6. Prepare Glasses: Prepare tall glasses by filling them with ice and adding a slice of lemon to each glass. This will ensure your brew is served chilled and beautifully garnished.

7. Serve: Finally, pour the chilled lemon ginger “tea” over the ice in each glass and serve immediately. The combination of spicy ginger, sweet honey, and tangy lemon creates a refreshing and invigorating drink perfect for any occasion.
