From the 5th Edition 1949 Bohemian-American Cook Book compiled by Marie Rosicky:

Harvest Drink (Ami, you would probably like this one)

Add a tablespoon of ground and sifted ginger to a quart of cold water, three tablespoons of sugar and a cup of vinegar. Very pleasant and wholesome.

Sounds a bit like Switchel, 1 table spoon ginger, one molasses, 20 parts of water.

A sort of lemon water

The vinegar doesn't make it too strong?

Sounds like it would taste like Ginger Kombucha without the fizzies?

I'd use Apple Cider Vinegar for it.
