Tips:

  • Choose ripe, fresh ginger: Look for ginger roots that are firm and smooth, with no signs of shriveling or bruising. Avoid any ginger with mold or soft spots.
  • Peel the ginger before slicing: Use a sharp paring knife to remove the thin, papery skin from the ginger root before slicing it.
  • Slice the ginger thinly: For best results, slice the ginger into thin, even pieces. This will help them infuse their flavor into the drink more easily.
  • Use a variety of mixers: Experiment with different mixers to create a variety of ginger sparklers. Some popular options include club soda, sparkling water, lemonade, and fruit juice.
  • Add some sweetness: If you like your drinks on the sweeter side, add a little bit of honey, agave nectar, or simple syrup to taste.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs or slices: Add a sprig of mint, a slice of lime, or a few berries to your ginger sparklers for a refreshing and flavorful garnish.
