Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
• 1 teaspoon Lime zest
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger (grated)
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 3 tablespoons Water
• 1 pinch Salt

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan, combine the water, honey, grated ginger, and a pinch of salt.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir continuously until the honey dissolves completely. This should take about 2 minutes.

Step 3

Add the fresh lime juice and lime zest to the saucepan. Stir the mixture well.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to low and let the syrup simmer gently for 3 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the syrup to cool completely. For maximum flavor, let it sit for an additional 10-15 minutes so the ginger can fully infuse.

Step 6

Strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve into a small jar or bowl to remove the ginger pulp and lime zest.

Step 7

Use the syrup immediately over your favorite fruit salad, or refrigerate it in an airtight container for up to one week.
