    List of Ingredients




    Ingredients
    2 cups (about 10 ounces) coarsely chopped, peeled fresh ginger
    3 strips lemon peel (about 4 inches each), yellow part only
    1-1/2 cups (about) sugar sweetner
    3 quarts chilled seltzer soda
    Ice cubes

    Recipe



    Instructions
    Combine ginger, lemon peel, and 4 cups water in a 3- to 4-quart pan. Bring to a boil over high heat; boil gently, uncovered, 10 minutes. Stir in 1-1/2 cups sugar and continue boiling until mixture is reduced to 3 cups, about 15 minutes longer. Pour mixture through a fine wire strainer set over a bowl. Discard peel; reserve ginger for another use or discard. Cool syrup, cover, and chill until cold, at least 1 hour or up to 1 week.

    For each serving, in a 16-ounce glass, mix 1/4 cup ginger syrup with 1 cup cold club soda. Add more ginger syrup, ice, and sugar to taste.

    Notes: Refrigerate leftover cooked ginger, if desired, and stir into softened vanilla ice cream, or sprinkle over vanilla yogurt or sliced bananas.

    Makes: About 4 quarts, 12 servings
