Wow, I never knew it was so easy. My husband personally loathes ginger, but it's so good for his stomach. Maybe if I made it myself, and cut it super thin and coated it in lots of sugar, he would be willing to give ginger another chance. And you get ginger ale on the side. Bonus!

I've been thinking about making homemade ginger ale. Now that I know I can get candied ginger out of it at the same time, it seems like a must-do project.

Yay! I have been thinking of making candied ginger now I can just use your recipe. :) I made ginger beer (which is similar to ginger ale it just has a spicier zing) a few times this summer.. it is so much more refreshing then the store bought kind. Thanks for sharing the recipes!

This looks amazing, my husband has been after me to make ginger ale since he saw Alton Brown do it. I am going to have to try it, and the candied ginger would be a nice treat in addition, then I can have homemade for my fruitcakes!
