Ginger lemonade is an easy to prepare ginger flavoured lemon juice, which could be prepared very quickly. It is a simple beverage which includes very limited ingredients which are readily available in our pantry. Lemonade prepared with the extra kick from the ginger tastes really awesome. It is an absolutely a wonderful concoction.

Consuming  plenty of liquids during summer is important to stay hydrated. These quick and simple cool beverages come handy when one feels lazy to prepare a detailed fruit juices. I got this recipe from Aval vikatan magazine.
