Instructions

1. Peel the ginger and cut into thin slices. Put the sugar with the pieces of ginger and cold water in a small saucepan and slowly bring to the boil until the sugar is dissolved. Let this ginger syrup cool down.
2. In the meantime, peel the cucumber and puree it finely with a hand blender, add the lemon juice and the cooled syrup. Mix everything well and put in a cool place.
3. This lemonade can now be chilled well or mixed with mineral water using ice cubes in a mixing ratio of around 1: 1. A sprig of rosemary gives it a special touch.
4. Cucumber or lemon slices make a good decoration. Also delicious as a summer cocktail with ginger ale and a shot of vodka, or with tonic and gin.
