Homemade Ginger Beer

You do not have to be Jamacian to love ginger beer.  My dad is a true lover and I made this for him Thanksgiving 2014 and he loved it!  the fresh ginger is what makes this drink so awesome.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup raw sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 knob ginger (peeled and grated)
lemon or line juice
2 cups water
6 cups soda water

Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients except lemon juice and soda water into a small pot.
2. Bring to boil, reduce heat, let simmer 15 minutes but stir often.
3. Remove from heat and let sit for at least 30 minutes but can be a few hours.  It will start to get syrupy.
4. Strain ginger pieces and store in fridge till ready to use.
5. Add two tablespoons or so to a 12 ounce cup of the soda water.  Squeeze in lemon or lime juice to top it off.
