200 g ginger
2 null lemons
200 g sugar
200 ml water
2 g cinnamon cassia pieces
4 to 5 null whole cloves

null null carbonated water

Method

Thinly peel only the yellow part of the lemon skins, then finely mince them.
Squeeze the juice from the two zested lemons and set it aside to be added at the end.
Chop the ginger finely using a blender or food processor.
Place the cinnamon, cloves, and red chili pepper into a spice pouch or tea filter bag.
In a pot, combine the water, minced ginger, sugar, minced lemon zest, and the spice pouch.
Stir well and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to very low and let it simmer for about 15 minutes.

To serve, mix 1 part of the ginger-lemon syrup with 2 parts of carbonated water over ice.
