Ingredients

4 servings

For the ginger syrup

1 cup 100% cranberry juice (unsweetened)
½ cup water
3 tbsp maple syrup
Ingredient note
AIP restricts added sweeteners, but small occasional amounts of unrefined maple syrup are accepted on the protocol; the ~2 1/4 teaspoons per serving here likely stays within that limited allowance. If you prefer to always avoid maple syrup, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced

For the cooler

3 tbsp fresh lime juice (from about 2 limes)
2 cups sparkling water
2 cups ice cubes

For serving

4 sprigs fresh mint (optional)
4 thin lime slices (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the water, maple syrup, and sliced ginger in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the maple syrup dissolves. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 5 minutes, until the syrup is fragrant and the ginger flavor is pronounced.
2
Remove from the heat and let the ginger syrup steep for 15 minutes, until cooled to room temperature. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a pitcher, pressing the ginger slices to extract as much liquid as possible; discard the solids.
