Instructions
Combine water and sugar in a saucepan and simmer, stirring, to dissolve for 2-3 minutes. Add salt, ginger, lemon peels and juice and simmer for another 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow it to steep for an additional 30 minutes. Cool in fridge, serve over ice with seltzer and a squeeze of lemon, adding vodka or another spirit if you’d like. Note: This is sweet, but not VERY sweet so if you’d like a very sweet drink then double the amount of sugar and keep the water to the same measurement.View original recipe
