LOMI LOMI(MALDIVES)

Steps:

• To make the ginger juice:.
• Combine 1 cup peeled & grated ginger, with 4 cups boiling water. Strain. Alternatively you can boil the ginger until it reaches desired strength.
• You can also run fresh ginger through a juicer, if you have one, but the result is much more potent, so you won't need as much in the recipe.
• Ginger juice keeps for at least a week in the fridge.
• To make the Lomi Lomi:.
• I have put it in cups to make it easy, but here is the method to make as much or as little as you want.
• Mix 1 part ginger juice(1 cup), 1.5 parts lime juice(1 1/2 cups) and 1-3 parts honey (1-3 cups or to taste).
• Mix with lots of crushed ice, or blend the Lomi Lomi and ice together, like a frozen margherita(yum!).
• You will have enough ginger juice to make 3 more batches of Lomi Lomi!
• NOTE: Be sure to thoroughly mix the honey into the juices first while still hot, before adding the ice, or the honey will harden like rock and wont blend into the drink.
