Ginger Switchel {hot weather drink}
Tangy, slightly sweet, refreshing as heck, with a decided ginger kick, Ginger Switchel is a fantastic electrolyte balancer when you're dehydrated but is also great to help beat the heat!
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup mild honey
- 1/4 cup raw apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon dried ground ginger
- 1 inch fresh ginger root sliced into coins and smacked with a meat tenderizer or heavy pan to release the juices
- fresh cold water
Instructions
- Add the honey, raw apple cider vinegar, and ground ginger to the bottom of a quart jar or 1 liter jar that has a tight fitting lid. Whisk until thoroughly combined, add the fresh ginger coins, then fill the jar with fresh, cold water up to within 1/4-inch of the top and fix the lid in place. Shake and invert a few times before stashing in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours but as long as 36 hours. Remove the pieces of ginger root from the jars and serve the Ginger Switchel over ice or with plain seltzer or club soda.
