Gingerale

Ginger is very good for joint pains. It acts as preventive also. It is a digestive root used by us in all the Indian cooking. A combination of lemon and ginger can act as a good appetizer. This can be had at any time of the day. Generally a concentrate is prepared to which water or soda is added according to the individual taste.

Ingredients:
500g sugar, 500g lemon juice concentrate, 250g ginger, little salt and ½ litre water.

Preparation:
  1. Wash and grate ginger and keep it aside. 
  2. Squeeze out lemons for getting 500g of concentrate. 
  3. Mix water and sugar and bring it to boil. 
  4. To this add the lime juice and grated ginger and put off the flame. 
  5. Stain the concentrate but do not squeeze the ginger lest it will leave too pungent a taste. 
  6. The end product comes out into a light pink with a soothing taste. 
  7. The reaction between lime and ginger gives us the pink color. 


Serve chilled with soda or water.
