GINGER LIME FIZZ

Steps:

• Combine ginger and sugar with 4 cups water, or enough to cover, in a medium saucepan. Place over medium-high heat until mixture comes to a boil. Reduce to a simmer; stir until sugar dissolves completely. Continue to simmer about 20 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool to room temperature, at least 2 hours. Strain out the ginger, and discard.
• Combine the ginger syrup, lime juice, and seltzer in a pitcher. Pour into ice-filled glasses, and serve immediately.

CUCUMBER GINGER FIZZ RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• In a tall glass, squeeze a wedge of lime, and then muddle with a few slices of cucumber. Then, combine 2 to 3 ounces vodka with ginger ale (and club soda if you prefer your drinks on the drier side), and stir with ice.

FLEMING FIZZ

Steps:

• For the ginger-honey syrup:
• Combine ginger and ½ cup water in a blender and blend until smooth, about 1 minute. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a liquid measuring cup, pressing on solids to extract juice. Pour ½ cup of the ginger juice into a large resealable jar and stir in honey. (If you'd like to tone down the ginger a bit, add additional ¼ cup honey and ¼ cup water.) Seal jar tightly and shake until honey is completely dissolved (or rinse out blender and blend ginger juice and honey together to mix.) Makes enough for 10 cocktails. Syrup will keep 2 weeks in the refrigerator; shake well before using.
• For the cocktail:
• Combine blended Scotch, lemon juice, and Ginger-Honey Syrup in a cocktail shaker. Fill with ice and shake until well chilled. Add sparkling wine to a flute glass, then strain cocktail into glass. Gently float smoky Scotch on top of drink. Garnish with lemon twist and candied ginger.

• Optional serving: Fill glasses with ice and one-half to two-thirds full with the blended juice. Top with lemonade and/or vodka.

Let cool, then strain the syrup into a large mason jar and discard the ginger. Add the lemon juice to the syrup and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Fill 4 large glasses with ice, pour 1/4 cup of the syrup into each glass and top up with some club soda. Add a slice of lemon to each glass and serve.
