Homemade Ginger Ale

Ingredients:

Root Ginger
Agave
Water
Soda Water




Method:

Wash the ginger & cut into 5mm wide slices, make them as long as possible.



Place the slices into a large saucepan.  Add 2 - 3 tbsp agave to taste & fill the pan with water.



Cover & bring to the boil.  Then simmer for 1-2 hours or until the water has reduced by half & the ginger is tender.



Scoop out the ginger slices & place in a container.  Use a hand held blender & create a paste.  Transfer to a sieve & squeeze out the juice.



Throw the dry paste away & rinse the sieve.  Run the remaining liquid through the sieve & bottle.



When in need of refreshment pour between 1-2cm into a glass with ice then top up with soda water.  With just a few ingredients you can make a delicious drink that will also work well in cocktails.
