Place egg yolks, mustard, water, ginger, garlic, lime juice and hot sauce, if using, in a food processor or non-reactive stainless steel mixing bowl or a glass bowl. Pulse or whisk together until smooth.
Slowly add oil drop by drop into the bowl while continually whisk- ing or processing. The mixture should resemble mayonnaise. Add salt and pepper to taste.
The aioli can be stored, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
