- •2 teaspoons ground ginger
- •⅛ teaspoon ground cardamom
- •1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- •⅛ teaspoon fine-grain sea salt
- •4 cups sparkling water

Cooking Instructions
- 1.
In a medium pitcher, make a thick paste by stirring together the sugar, ginger, cardamom, lime juice, salt, and a small splash of the sparkling water. Stir until any lumps have dissolved. Add more water, a little at a time, stirring all the while. The mixture will get quite fizzy, so just take it slow. Serve as cold as possible with as many ice cubes wedged into the pitcher as possible.
