ingredients

  • 1/2 cups organic sugar
  • 1 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
  • 2 fresh peaches
  • 2 fresh limes, juiced
  • 2 litre lemon sparkling water
  • 4 sprigs fresh mint

Method

  • Step 1

    In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, bring 1 cup water, sugar, and ginger to a gentle simmer, stirring to dissolve sugar. Remove simple syrup from heat, cover, and steep for 30 minutes.

  • Step 2

    Over a medium bowl, pour syrup through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing minced ginger against sieve with the back of a spoon. Discard ginger. Cover bowl and chill.

  • Step 3

    Evenly distribute peach slices among 8 tall glasses. For each glass, lightly press peaches with a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon to release their juice.

  • Step 4

    Stir the lime juice into the simple syrup. Pour about 2-3 tablespoons chilled syrup over peaches. Pour in seltzer until glasses are about half full, and stir to mix. Add ice cubes; then top with seltzer. Garnish with mint sprigs.
