2 cup coarsely chopped, peeled
1 fresh ginger
3 strips lemon peel, pith
1 removed
1 1/2 cup sugar
3 quarts chilled club soda
1 ice cubes
Put ginger, lemon peel, and 4 cups of water into a 4quart pan. Bring
to the boil, and continue boiling, without lid, for about 10 minutes.
Stir in 1 1/2 cups sugar and boil for about 15 more minutes. Liquid
should have reduced to about 3 cups. Pour through a wire seive and
discard the peel and ginger. Cool the syrup, cover and chill for at
least an hour. To serve, pour 1/4 cup of the syrup into a tall glass
and add 1 cup of the club soda. Add ice and more syrup if needed.
