Instead of Ginger ale
Nothing truly replaces ginger ale's sweet, fizzy ginger flavour; soda water with fresh ginger is the closest practical option.
Soda waterUse the same weight. Stir in 1 tsp grated fresh ginger and a pinch of sugar per 200 ml for a ginger-fizzy effect; it will be less sweet and less ale-like.
GingerSteep 5 g crushed fresh ginger in hot water, strain, cool and top up with soda water. Use in place of the same weight of ginger ale; sharper and not sweet.
Ground gingerStir 1 g ground ginger into 200 ml soda water with a little sugar. Gives a dry ginger note but no true ale body.
