The magic ginger drink 3 in 1

Chinese sailors consumed ginger to avoid getting seasick. The Greeks used it to improve digestion, and King Henry VIII believed that ginger was a cure for the plague. Queen Elizabeth I's favorite treat was sweet ginger bread. Scheherazade also used the magical power of ginger, passing it through "Stories from 1001 Nights". Because of its glorious history, ginger deserves to be on your menu, and I suggest it be this drink…

Preparation steps

  • Peel a stalk of ginger and chop it in a blender. Combine sugar, chopped ginger and water in a large saucepan. Put the sherpa on the stove and heat to boiling. When it boils, cool and leave it in the cold for 12 hours (it is best to do it in the evening, then leave it cooled in the refrigerator until the next morning). After standing for 12 hours, strain through a fine sieve. Then squeeze the lemon juice and combine it with the strained liquid. Pour into bottles and store in a cool place.
  • NOTE: For this recipe I used a cup of 2.5 dcl and I got 4 ½ liters of a thick drink that is diluted with plain water, mineral water, hot water, champagne or white wine. The dilution ratio is 1/3 of the beverage with 2/3 of the liquid. On warm days, this drink diluted with water is very refreshing, and children adore it with mineral water. On cold days and during colds, it is diluted with hot water like tea, because it enhances the effect of ginger, so it cleans the airways and raises energy. For special occasions, a delicious cocktail can be made from this drink and champagne (you can replace champagne with white wine). If this dose is too high for you, I recommend mamasvetlana's similar drink.
