Refreshing summer drink, good for tea time, too! From the Betty Crocker website several years ago. Take advantage of lemons on sale and enjoy a sip on a spring afternoon!
SERVES 15
Ingredients
- 3 cups sugar
- 16 cups water (4 quarts)
- 4 cups fresh lemon juice (24 lemons)
- 12-14 slices fresh gingerroot
- 2 lemons, sliced
Directions
1
Mix sugar water and gingerroot in an 8 quart heavy pan.2
Heat to boiling, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and cool 15 minutes. Remove gingerroot.3
Pour sugar mixture into a pitcher or large glass or plastic container.4
Stir in lemon juice and refrigerate at least on hour until chilled.5
Serve over ice garnished with lemon slices.6
I'm not sure of the number of servings. I've halved this and served it at tea attended by 9 and had plenty.7
Cooking time is chilling time.

I thought the ginger might be a little too strong but no it turned out just right. Thanks.

Loved it but wanted to offer a serving suggestion. Chilled this in the ice box before serving and the first sip was a bit disappointing; the lemon was too sharp and the ginger absent. Added some ice and the beverage's flavors magically transformed and balanced the two ingredients so well — a light pucker tartness with some soft peppery hues. Just perfect on a hot humid day.

Made for PAC, Spring 2007 ~ What a refreshing drink, whether the weather is warm or not! I like tart when it comes to lemons, so cut back on the sugar a little & probably used just over 2 cups! The recipe made enough to satisfy 8 of us during a warm afternoon! Great recipe!
