How did I miss this cooling, beat-the-summer-heat recipe earlier? It is so good. My only changes were to use regular (Canada-Dry) ginger-ale and 2% greek yoghurt. Other than that, followed as stated. Refreshing, creamy dessert with a nice zing from the fresh ginger. This would be so good with other fruit added, too, and the variations are endless...
