Ginger Lemon Syrup

Wash ginger (organic if possible) and cut into thin slices unpeeled, wash lemons (organic if possible) and peel off only the outer yellow peel with a vegetable peeler (it is full of essential oils). Add the water to the ginger slices and lemon peel and bring to the boil briefly and then simmer on a low flame for about 20 minutes. After this time, pour off the brew through a fine sieve and let it cool down.

Squeeze the peeled lemons and mix with the honey. Then mix with the cooled ginger stock, pour into a hot rinsed bottle and place in the refrigerator. Lasts about 3 weeks.

This time I cooked half a turmeric root and added the juice of an orange, this explains the color.

I drink a shot glass of ginger syrup every morning or pour it into the tea, but it should not be more than 60 ° C warm.
