Simple and delicious. I suggest to grate the ginger for an even better effect.

Cocktail is much more mild than I was expecting. There is a definite hint of ginger at the end of the drink, but it is delightfully tart and very easy to drink.

I tasted it before adding the lime and it had such a punch of ginger I was worried about the finished drink. The lime tamed it right down to crouching pose.

I agree. I think I'd try it with another slice of ginger, maybe one more barspoon or half-barspoon of honey, 2.5-5ml less water and/or maybe even a tiny bit less lime juice.
