Peel skin off of ginger root, and cut up into skinny pieces.

Add 12 cups of water to a large sauce pan. Add cut up ginger.

Bring to a boil, and boil for 15 minutes.

Let water cool in pan before pouring it into pitcher.

Once the water has cooled a bit, use a strainer to catch any pieces of ginger root when pouring water into pitcher.

Add sliced lemon to pitcher.

Enjoy once it has cooled completely. I prefer it chilled with ice.

Enjoy!!
