Cut the peeled ginger into small pieces and place in a saucepan with the water. Halve the lemons and add. Bring to a boil, then turn the temperature down and simmer for about 5 minutes. Now take out the lemon halves and squeeze. Pour in lemon juice and simmer for another 5 minutes.
Sieve the ginger and let everything cool down. Now add honey first (if the honey is cooked it loses its vitamins and healing properties - so be patient).
Fill the ready-made syrup into prepared bottles (I fill the syrup into swing-top bottles, but it can also be filled into any container).
This syrup can be mixed with cold or hot water, it also tastes very good with black tea or sparkling wine.
