*(House made Lemongrass-ginger Simple Syrup Recipe: Combine 50 oz. simple syrup (1:1 granulated sugar boiled with water until dissolved), with 8 oz. peeled & chopped fresh ginger root, and 15 oz. finely chopped fresh lemongrass (peel, removing stiff outer layer and chop 1 ½  inches off ends, first, then discard and chop remainder). Cook together in a medium sized pot on the stove top. Simmer for 15 minutes then remove from heat. Allow cooling for 30 minutes. Strain off debris through a fine mesh strainer so only clear syrup is left. Cover, label and refrigerate until ready for use. Syrup expires in one month from made on date.
