Citrus Ginger Mocktail

Groceries:

• 3-4 Tbsp fresh ginger juice (3 1-inch knobs of ginger, blended with ⅓ cup water, and strained)
• 4 cups citrus juice (prefer freshly squeezed, but you can do a mix of fresh and bottled as well. I did a mix of fresh orange, lemon, and grapefruit)
• 4 ½ cups sparkling water (or ginger beer for a stronger ginger flavor)
• One batch rosemary simple syrup
• Edible glitter (Optional)

For the simple syrup:

• 1 cup water
• 1 ½ cup dark brown sugar
• The zest of 1-2 citrus fruits: I did an orange and a lemon
• 1-2 sprigs of fresh rosemary
• ¼ tsp sea salt
• Very small pinch ground cardamom

‍

Instructions: 

Bring the simple syrup ingredients to a light boil in a small saucepan until sugar and salt have been dissolved. Let stand for 15 minutes. Strain. In a pitcher, add the ginger juice, fresh citrus juice, and strained simple syrup. Add sparkling water and edible glitter and serve over lots of ice.
