Ingredients

• 2 cups fresh ginger, peeled and sliced thin
• 6 cups water
• 1 to 1 1/2 cups honey, to taste

Directions

Peel ginger with a potato peeler and slice it into thin pieces. Set aside. Boil 6 cups of water in a saucepan. When water is boiling turn it off, remove from heat and add the ginger into the pan.  Let it steep for about an hour or longer. Strain the water into a large bowl  and add the honey. Stir until the honey is mixed in. Store in a pitcher in the refrigerator.

Notes

This drink can be served hot or cold. If you pour it over ice and mix with sparkling water it tastes just like ginger ale!!  Next time you have a cold or the flu, mix a little lemon in and heat it up!! It works wonders.
