To the recipe →Ginger with a serious kick
Gimber is a Belgian brand that makes a concentrated ginger drink. It was founded by the Belgian couple Dimitri Oosterlynck and Sylvie Schollier. The drink is organic and contains no alcohol. According to the label, the classic N°1 Original contains 33% ginger juice and 24% lemon juice, supplemented with water, cane sugar and an infusion of herbs.
Because it is a concentrate, you usually do not drink it straight from the bottle in a large glass. Take a small shot neat, or dilute it. The maker recommends 2 cl of Gimber with 15 cl of sparkling water. You can also mix it with hot water, milk or in a mocktail. There are also a few other flavors and a ready-to-drink sparkling version. Shake the bottle before use and refrigerate it after opening.
