Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb fresh rhubarb stalks, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (10 cups)
  • 2 1/2 cups cold water
  • 1 3/4 cups sugar
  • 3 tablespoons coarsely chopped peeled fresh ginger
  • About 2 cups sparkling water

Instructions

  1. Bring rhubarb, cold water, sugar, and ginger to a simmer in a 4- to 5-quart pot over moderate heat, uncovered, stirring once or twice, then simmer 1 minute. Remove from heat and let steep, uncovered, 1 hour.
  2. Pour mixture through a large fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl, gently stirring but not pressing on solids (discard solids; you will have about 6 cups syrup). Chill syrup completely, about 45 minutes.
  3. Serve syrup in glasses over ice with a splash of sparkling water.
