Honey Ginger Lemonade

Step 1

In a small pot (or tea kettle) bring 1 cup of water to a boil.  Once boiling, turn the heat off and add honey and sliced ginger and let sit for 20 minutes (or you can pour boiling water from a tea kettle over honey and sliced ginger).

Step 2

While the honey and ginger are steeping, juice the lemons and pour into a large pitcher, add water and ice.

Step 3

Strain out the ginger and add the honey-ginger syrup to the pitcher and mix well.  Add fresh mint leaves and refrigerate or serve immediately over ice.
