Here's an alcohol-free spin on this time-honored, Southern beverage. Fresh mint, tangy lemom and ginger ale fizz make for pleasant sipping. —Annette Grahl Midway, Kentucky
Ingredients:
2 cups cold water
1-1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cup lemon juice
6 mint sprigs
5 cups ice cubes
2-1/2 cups ginger ale, chilled
lemon slices and additional mint, optional
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the water, sugar, lemon juice and mint. Let stand for at least 45 minutes.
2. Strain and discard mint. Place ice cubes in two 2-qt. pitchers; add half of the lemon mixture and ginger ale to each. Garnish with lemon and mint if desired. Yield: 13 servings (about 3 quarts).
