Make your own refreshing carbonated drink
The ginger ale available in grocery stores is just too sweet for me! This recipe allows me to have a invigorating carbonated ginger drink without so much sugar.
The ingredients are just crystallized ginger, a cinnamon stick, and water. You can find small packages of crystallized ginger where Chinese food items are in some grocery stores. I buy 5 pound bags on Amazon from a the seller Green Bulk to keep the cost down.
