I just made homemade ginger ale

and I love it! I got the recipe from here. So easy. If you normally like ginger ale but don't like ginger or haven't ever tried candied ginger or the like be warned that homemade ginger ale has a kick. It's spicy, but that's what I like about it. The only downside of this is that as an environmentalist I don't feel right about buying bottles of soda water to add to the ginger syrup. I've got a soda siphon that I picked up from a thrift store that needs one extra part and then I should be gold. But until I get my arse in gear to order said part, I might have to indulge with store bought soda water and my homemade ginger ale. In the meantime I'll figure out a way to offset my environmental sins.
