Source of Recipe


Saeed Amini


List of Ingredients




4 stalks lemon grass
1 C water
1 C sugar
Soda water or seltzer, chilled



Recipe



Bruise the lemon grass stalks by hitting them with the flat side of a knife. Cut into smaller lengths to fit in your pan.
In a small saucepan, bring the water to a boil, then turn heat to low and add sugar and lemon grass, stirring until sugar dissolves. Let lemon grass simmer about 30 minutes over very low heat.
Remove from heat and let it cool completely. Refrigerate for several hours with lemon grass still in it.
Strain out lemon grass. Add 2 ounces lemon grass syrup to a glass and top with 6 ounces cold soda water or seltzer. Stir to combine. Serve iced. Alternatively, put lemon grass syrup, soda and ice in a cocktail shaker and mix, then pour into a glass and serve.
