This will infuse the water with the ginger flavor.Next, strain the ginger water through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a pitcher. Add the honey and lemon juice, then stir until well combined. Let the mixture cool to room temperature.
When you're ready to serve, fill a glass with ice and pour in the ginger mixture until it's about 1/3 full. Top it off with sparkling water or club soda, and garnish with lemon slices and fresh mint leaves if desired.Enjoy your homemade ginger ale, and feel good knowing that you're treating your body to a healthy and delicious drink!
