Ingredients
- 150 grams Fresh ginger root
- 0.5 cups Lemon juice
- 0.25 cups Stevia or monk fruit sweetener
- 2 liters Filtered water
- 1 liter Club soda or sparkling water
Directions
Step 1
Start by peeling the ginger root using a spoon to scrape off the skin. Then, grate the ginger finely using a microplane or fine grater.
Step 2
In a large pot, combine the grated ginger and 2 liters of filtered water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and let it gently simmer for about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Remove the pot from the heat and allow the ginger infusion to cool for 15-20 minutes.
Step 4
Strain the ginger water through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large pitcher or bowl to remove the grated ginger pulp.
Step 5
Stir in the lemon juice and your choice of natural sweetener (Stevia or monk fruit) into the ginger mixture. Adjust the sweetness according to your preference.
Step 6
Pour the ginger mixture into a bottle or pitcher and refrigerate it until thoroughly chilled, at least 2 hours or overnight for the best flavor.
Step 7
Just before serving, mix in the club soda or sparkling water. Taste and adjust the sweetness or lemon as necessary.
Step 8
Serve over ice and enjoy your homemade sugar-free ginger beer. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
