- ½ cup fresh lime juice (from about 6 limes)
- ¼ tsp. kosher salt
- Club soda and lime wedges (for serving)
Method
- Simmer the sliced ginger with the sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan until the sugar dissolves and the ginger perfumes the syrup, then strain and cool it.
- Blend or muddle half the quartered strawberries into the ginger syrup until the syrup turns deep pink and fruity.
- Stir the fresh lime juice and kosher salt into the strawberry ginger syrup and chill the limeade base well.
- Divide the remaining strawberry quarters between glasses with ice, pour the limeade base over them, and top each glass with club soda, serving the drinks with lime wedges.
