Ginger Lemonade

August 25, 2010 – 5:04 pm

A lovely few warm days here in San Francisco.  So refreshing after a chilly, foggy summer.  The 85-degree weather has me craving lemonade, so I’ve been making my own light, slightly gingery version.  It’s super simple, sugar-free, and so hydrating:

1/2 liter of pure water
1 8-oz cup of ginger tea, strongly brewed
juice of 1 1/2 lemons
stevia to taste
a dozen ice cubes

I like mine only just slightly sweet, enough to cut the tartness of the lemon but leave the spiciness of the ginger.  This is a great option for someone who doesn’t like to drink plain water or has trouble getting enough in each day.
