Ingredients
Carrot Ginger Syrup:
1 cup packed peeled carrot skins (from about 7 carrots)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup packed peeled ginger skins (from about four 3-inch pieces ginger)
Carrot Ginger Soda:
1 cup Carrot Ginger Syrup
4 cups seltzer
Directions
- For the carrot ginger syrup: Stir together the carrot skins, sugar, ginger skins and 1 1/2 cups water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat, about 8 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until bright orange and slightly syrupy, 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to infuse for 15 minutes. Strain into a heat-resistant container and discard the solids. Cool, transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to use and for up to 1 week.
- For the carrot ginger soda: Fill 4 tall glasses halfway with ice. Add 1/4 cup syrup and 1 cup seltzer to each glass, stir and serve.
