Ingredients

9 cup water, divided
¼ cup minced fresh ginger
¼ cup honey or pure maple syrup
¼ cup molasses
¾ cup lemon juice
¼ cup cider vinegar
fresh berries, mint sprigs or lemon slices for garnish

Directions

1. Combine 3 cups water with ginger in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, cover and let infuse for 15 minutes.

2. Strain the ginger-infused water into a pitcher, pressing on the ginger solids to extract all the liquid. Add honey (or maple syrup) and molasses; stir until dissolved. Stir in lemon juice, vinegar and the remaining 6 cups water. Chill until very cold, at least 2 hours or overnight.

3. Stir the punch and serve in tall glasses over ice cubes. Garnish with berries, mint sprigs or lemon slices, if desired.

To Make Ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
