1. Wash and Prepare the Ingredients:
Rinse the ginger and lemons thoroughly to remove any dirt or residue.
Slice the lemons thinly, removing any seeds.
Peel the ginger (optional, but recommended if not organic) and slice it into thin rounds.
2. Layer the Ingredients in the Jar:
In a clean glass jar, layer the lemon slices and ginger slices alternately.
Pour raw honey over the layers, making sure the honey covers all the ingredients.
Use a spoon to press the mixture down and release the juice from the lemons and ginger.
3. Seal and Store:
Close the jar tightly with a lid.
Let the mixture sit in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before using to allow the flavors and beneficial compounds to infuse.
The mixture will turn syrupy over time.
