Instructions

Thoroughly wash the fresh ginger. Thinly slice the ginger, with or without peeling.
Place the ginger slices in a pitcher. Add the water. Cover the pitcher and refrigerate overnight to allow the ginger to infuse the water.
The next morning, gently warm the ginger-infused water until lukewarm. Do not boil, as this can diminish the delicate flavors.
Pour the warmed water into mugs or glasses. Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon per serving. Stir to combine.
Garnish with a lemon slice. Enjoy warm or cool.

Recipe Notes

Good To Know

Prefer to drink this detoxifying drink before breakfast.
Ginger can be omitted.
Squeeze the lemon juice just before drinking to maximize its health benefits.
For extra flavor and detox benefits, add a few fresh mint leaves or a pinch of ground turmeric when steeping the ginger.
To maximize ginger’s beneficial compounds, grate or finely chop the ginger before steeping, and let it simmer gently for at least 5–10 minutes before adding lemon juice.
For a naturally sweeter version, infuse a few slices of green apple or cucumber during steeping instead of adding honey or sugar.

Expert Tips

For a spicier kick, use a variety of ginger known for its higher pungency, like Jamaican ginger.
If you find the drink too tart, a small amount of raw honey or maple syrup can be added after the drink has cooled slightly to preserve their beneficial enzymes.
Experiment with other citrus fruits like lime or orange for a variation on the classic lemon-ginger combination.

Storage Instructions

If you plan to make a larger batch for the week, store it in a glass pitcher in the refrigerator and give it a quick shake before serving, as ginger particles may settle at the bottom.
