Homemade lemonade

NOTES

In case you use brown sugar, your lemonade will have a darker color.
It’s preferable to consume lemonade within a week, so you don’t lose freshness and flavors.

1.	Combine water with sugar in a small sauce pan. Bring to boil and stir to dissolve sugar.
2.	Add lemon peel and fresh ginger to the syrup. Let it boil for 2-3 minutes.
3.	Allow to cool to room temperature.
4.	Add strained lemon juice to the syrup and stir to combine.
5.	Chill lemonade syrup in a sterile bottle. You can keep it to the fridge for a week.
6.	Before serving, stir the bottle and dilute one part of syrup with two parts of water (mineral or sparkling).
7.	Serve lemonade over ice, lime slices, mint leaves and enjoy!
