This is a lovely refreshing drink which can be drunk as it is, or you can add the spirit of your choice and use it as a mixer. I just love the blend of lemon grass with the ginger syrup and the mint gives the drink a bit of "zing" to it.
The vodka that I added gave an extra zing too..hee hee...
INGREDIENTS
4 stalks of lemon grass,sliced
3 ½ cups water
½ cup ginger syrup
2 cups water (sparkling or still)
1 cup fresh mint leaves
