2 servings
For the ginger syrup
- 1 cup coconut water
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp honey
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Maple syrup is a little thinner and less sticky than honey.
For the drink
- 1 cup fresh apple juice (pressed from sweet apples, not from concentrate)
- ¼ cup full-fat coconut milk
- ½ cup sparkling water
- 1 cup ice cubes
For serving
- 2 thin slices fresh apple, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Combine the coconut water, sliced ginger, and honey in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the honey dissolves, then bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 3–4 minutes, until the liquid is fragrant and the ginger flavor is pronounced.

Remove from the heat and let the ginger syrup steep for 10–15 minutes, until cooled to room temperature. Pour through a fine-mesh strainer into a pitcher or large measuring cup, pressing the ginger slices to extract as much liquid as possible; discard the solids.
