(A.K.A. the story of the ginger people who lived under the lemon sun next to the lemon mountain.)
Back on the 4th of this month, Gia and I decided to make Lemon Ginger Ice. The idea stemmed from the surplus of lemons which we still have haunting our tree out back.
Ingredients
- 8 medium to large lemons
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 2 cups water
- 2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and sliced
- Crushed ice
Prep
Step 1.) Peel lemons.
Step 2.) Juice 'em.
Step 3.) Peel the ginger and chop it up.
Directions
To make the ginger syrup: Combine the sugar, water, and ginger in a pot over medium heat. Gently simmer and stir for 2 minutes until the sugar is dissolved and the ginger fragrant - do not allow the syrup to boil or get dark. Remove from heat, cover, and steep until cool.
To complete your delicious lemon treat: Fill a blender with crushed ice, pour in the lemon juice, add the ginger syrup (remove the big pieces of ginger), and blend until slushy. Freeze for 1 hour or until firm.
Enjoy.
PS - If any of our buddies out there need lemons, we are happy to share!
