      I've been meaning to make this for yonks, and the Cook the Elves weekend gave me the perfect opportunity! I shaved the ginger with a potato peeler, which gave it more surface and more flavor. Instead of lemon flavoring I used shaved pieces of lemon peel and strained that out with the ginger. I only had liquid stevia around, and used just a few drops. This makes a great syrup to use with club soda, but it also makes a great syrup to add to a chicken stir-fry. Add just about a tablespoon to your stir-fry with lots of scallions and some lemon-grass, and you have a winner!

      This is even better than store-bought Gingerale! I had to use substitutes, though. I used vanilla essence for the vanilla flavouring, sugar for Stevia powder and freshly squeezed lemon juice for the non-alcoholic lemon flavouring. I'll be serving this tomorrow. I "had to" try it first because I have been wanting to make this and taste it since ages!! Thank You for posting and THANK YOU for Zaar!

      I tried the recipe as written (except I used sugar instead of stevia). Way too much vanilla for my taste. I actually liked it better without the vanilla or the lemon, just ginger root and sugar.

      The best home-made ginger ale I've tried! The vanilla is very strong, I used pure vanilla extract - only 1 Tbs and it was too much. I used lemon extract (only 2 tsp - which was enough). The level of stevia was perfect. I too peeled my ginger into small pieces and next time I may even grate it so all the ginger-y goodness can come out. I don't know if it helped or not, but I boiled the mixture for 10 minutes then simmered it (covered) for about an hour. The result is a very lively ginger flavor!

      I was so happy to find a recipe, right off the bat, that used Stevia - which I have on hand!!! I would add less Vanilla. I used the stout stuff from Mexico so it was almost like drinking a bubbly vanilla drink with a hint of lemon. I think I might add extra ginger next time.

      I agree that the next time I make this, I will use less vanilla. I did enjoy this & so did a friend of mine. She liked the spicy bite from the ginger. I kept this as a concentrate in the fridge & just let her mix her own drink to taste. I think I will make some more & maybe try adding some other fruits as well. I bet this would taste wonderful as part of a sangria. Hmmm. I'll let you know if I try it. Thank you very much for the recipe!

      It's good and I'll make it again, but I'll half the venilla next time. It was way too much vanilla for me. Thanks!

      This is a tasty beverage! I wasn't sure what was meant by "lemon flavoring" so I followed the lead of a few other posters and 1) added lemon zest to the boiling water and 2) added lemon juice when I added the vanilla. I may use lemon extract next time, just to experiment. Since I like a strong ginger taste, I use 50/50 syrup/club soda mix. Outstanding; especially considering what a successful use of stevia this is (I have found approximately one thing I like that contains stevia now :) ). Thanks!

      This is wonderful! The only change I made was to use liquid stevia instead of powdered. Since ginger is good for nausea, this will be the new drink in my house for people with upset stomachs.

      This was great. Served it after a group of us went out for a big Italian dinner. Big hit with my ginger-loving father. ADDED BONUS: ginger aids digestion....which we really needed after that big Italian dinner!
