Best 6 Ginger Lime Cordial Recipes

HOMEMADE GINGER LIMEADE

Steps:

• Place the 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water in a saucepan and heat over medium heat to dissolve the sugar. Bring to a simmer. Once all the sugar has dissolved and the syrup starts to boil, set it aside to cool.
• Place the 3 oz fresh ginger and 1 tbsp water (upto 3 tbsp) in a mini processor, and pulse until well blended and pureed. Strain the ginger juice through a sieve, pressing down on the pulp to get the most out of the ginger. Set aside ¼ cup of this ginger juice.
• Alternatively, if you have a juicer, juice enough ginger to get 3 tbsp of pure ginger juice.
• Mix the ginger and salt with the 1.5 cups of lime juice. Add up to 1 - 1.5 cups of sugar syrup to sweeten the ginger lime juice (change the amount of sugar you add according to your tastes).
• Pour into a clean bottle/jar with a closeable cap and leave in the fridge to chill until needed.

HOMEMADE LIME CORDIAL

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a small bowl, stir the citric acid (and tartaric acid, if using) into the sugar.
• In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil and add the sugar.
• Stir constantly until the sugar is fully dissolved.
• Remove the pan from the heat, add the lime juice and peel, and stir well. Place it back on the stove, reduce the temperature, and allow to simmer for 2 minutes.
• Remove from heat, cover, and let rest until the cordial cools completely (about 1 hour).
• Pour the mix into a well-sealed container and refrigerate overnight.
• Strain out the lime rinds using a fine-mesh strainer.
• Pour the cordial into a clean bottle with a tight-fitting lid and refrigerate for another day before using it. Use it in your favorite drinks and enjoy!

HOMEMADE GINGER CORDIAL

Steps:

• Slice the top and bottom of lemon with a paring knife. Set one of the flat sides on your work surface. From top to bottom, following the curve of the fruit, cut away peel. Trim off any white pith from peel and discard. Discard flesh or save for another use.
• In a medium saucepan, bring sugar, 1 cup water, ginger, cream of tartar, and lemon peel to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar has dissolved, about 5 minutes.
• Add lemon juice and return to a boil. Strain mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a clean bottle; let cool. Keep refrigerated, until ready to use, up to 2 weeks.

GINGER CORDIAL

Steps:

• Boil the water, sugar, ginger, rind and cream of tartar for 5 minutes.
• Add the lemon or lime juice.
• Bring to the boil again.
• Take off the heat, strain and pour into a sterilised bottle which will hold approximately 6 cups of liquid.
• Use like ordinary cordial, either with iced water for a cooling drink, or hot water for a warming drink on a winter's night.

RAW LIME CORDIAL

Steps:

• Wash limes in a sinkful of warm water, scrubbing with your hands or a vegetable brush, and let them dry them on a dish towel. Peel them with a vegetable peeler, removing as little of the underlying white pith as possible. To begin each, it's helpful to cut the polar ends off, where the stem attaches and opposite. This should produce about 140 grams of peels.
• Cut limes in half and juice them. This should produce about 2 1/2 cups of juice.
• In a non-reactive, coverable container, add sugar to juice and stir until fully dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes. Crush peels up in handfuls to release the oils as you add them into the juice mix. Stir a bit to initiate extraction of the oils. (If you're making a ginger version, wash the ginger, then shred it in a blender or food processor (no need to peel it), employing some of the lime juice to allow it to liquefy, and add it into the lime mixture, stirring well.) Cover and refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours. When ready, strain the cordial off from the peels in a fine mesh strainer or chinoise. Funnel cordial into covered container or cappable bottle and return to refrigerator for another day, to cure, before using. Makes roughly 1 liter.
