I already made the recipe for this mocktail in the spring. At the request of Bonappetit Les Amis, the Belgian webshop for online foodies. I came up with this recipe with one of their top products, the Gili ginger elexir. Would you like to take a look at the webshop… https://www.bonappetit.be/nl/

600 ml fresh orange juice about 5 oranges
60 ml ginger concentrate
2 tbl spoon honey
2 flowers star anise
3 sprigs thyme
4 sprigs sprigs of thyme to decorate the 4 glasses

1/2 orange in partjes gesneden (of mandarijn)
50 ml fresh orange juice
10 ml ginger concentrate
100 ml water
orange peel to your own taste

Instructions

Make your own ice cubes

I have molded ice cubes in all shapes and sizes. I prefer to use the large round bulbs. You can fill it with pieces of fruit or vegetables.
To fill them up I made a mixture of water with orange juice and the ginger concentrate. The amount depends on the number of ice cubes you want to make…
In each bulb I put either orange slices, mandarin or strips of peel. Then I filled them with the mixture and put them in the freezer for at least 4 hours.

How to make the mocktail

Place the orange juice, honey, star anise and thyme in a cooking pot and heat over low heat for 5 minutes. Let this mixture cool and pour through a sieve.
Add the ginger concentrate. Here I worked with the "Gili elexir", available via the online webshop of www.bonappetit.be
Let it cool. Serve the glasses with the homemade ice cubes the juice and a sprig of thyme.

Notes

I have made this mocktail several times and it is always a success. The combination of the spicy ginger with the fresh anise flavor and thyme will amaze your guests … Definitely worth trying!
