Ingredients

2 servings

For the ginger-date syrup

3 medjool dates, pitted
½ cup water
1 tbsp fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced

For the drink

¼ cup fresh lemon juice (from about 2 lemons)
2 cups plain sparkling water
1 cup ice

For serving

2 lemon slices, for garnish (optional)
2 sprigs fresh mint, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the pitted dates, water, and sliced ginger in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the dates are completely soft and beginning to break apart, about 5 minutes.
2
Remove from the heat and let the mixture cool for 10 minutes, then press it through a fine-mesh strainer into a small bowl or jar, pressing firmly on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids. You should have about 1/4 cup of ginger-date syrup.
