Fresh Ginger Limeade
adapted from the book, From Bengal to Punjab, the Cuisines of India
makes a pitcher full
Ingredients
8 cups (a tad under 2 liters) cold water
2 Tablespoons freshly grated ginger
juice of 5 limes ( a little more than 1 cup, or about 10 oz. or 296 ml)
3/4- 1 cup (150-200 g.) sugar (depending on your taste)
Directions
In a pitcher, stir all of the ingredients together. Adjust the sugar to taste. Refrigerate. This is best when it has had a chance to sit for 30 minutes or more, for the flavors to meld. Strain it through a fine sieve before serving if you wish. (I didn't because I don't mind the small bits of fresh ginger in my drink, I liked it even.) Serve cold over ice.
