They finally get to it about 3 minutes in.

You're great! I've been obsessed with ginger and ginger ale for some time and finally you showed me the way to an easy recipe! I've been peeling and using a garlic press prior.

[VasGundar]

Hey Daniel!

I just came across your channel. I think your videos are awesome! Well done, scripted, or whatever. You should be syndicated! Keep it up!!!!

[danieldelaney]

@VasGundar Thanks so much! Glad you enjoy them!

[HarHarHellooo]

can you use perrier water?

[danieldelaney]

@HarHarHellooo yes - but you need to use a fancier glass. :)

@TheMrCreepah i eat pickled ginger all the time its awesome in fried rice and on top of sushi!

[aglanceatmyworld]

Nice! I may have to try this since my hubby loves ginger ale! What do you do with the leftover ginger root after it's cooked and removed?

[danieldelaney]

@aglanceatmyworld If you peel it first, and slice it, you can candy it the way we did with Galangal!

Next summer party I'm hosting I'm making this. Thank you.

[danieldelaney]

@nozdoz160 Great! Please comment back and let me know how it turned out.

[Ki33ran]

Cover Durian soon? :D

[danieldelaney]

@Ki33ran When I can get my hands on it. Haven't been able to find it here in New Orleans.

[margowsky]

Yummy! Ginger ale! I love this show so much. Wouldn't it be great if everyone that loved it posted a comment?? I think everyone should show their appreciation by posting comments and getting WTF?! more noticed on youtube!!

[danieldelaney]

@margowsky It would be sweet if everyone commented. But, I'm happy that you do! :) You should tell your friends about the show!

[margowsky]

@danieldelaney Just did that this morning kind sir. You can find me on facebook under my shop name: Gypsy Wagon. Yes, there you will see your face plastered.

[thePowerPlant]

Homemade Ginger syrup in a Mojito is the BEST summertime cocktail ever!

[danieldelaney]

@thePowerPlant Yes! I'll second that. I have a mint julep recipe coming out soon, which is great, too.

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

I love ginger ale :) I'm definitely going to try this! Thanks!

[danieldelaney]

@tokyoxjapanxfan No problem, let me know how it comes out.

[PlatypusGuitar]

ginger ale is the champagne of sodas, it says so on the canada dry packaging

[danieldelaney]

@PlatypusGuitar Haha! Yes. Though, there is a Jamaican soda called Champagne Kola - which tastes like bubble gum. Don't know how that ranks...

[SuvinRK]

Alton Brown did an Good Eats episode on ginger and how to make ginger ale. But you way is much more simpler, so I'm gonna mos def try this tomorrow! Thanks Dan and keep those WTFs coming!

[danieldelaney]

@SuvinRK Oh interesting - what did he do differently?

[SuvinRK]

@danieldelaney His process involved yeast for fermentation and some other things that I can't remember just now. But I recommend you give it a look.

[TheMrCreepah]

i like eating ginger plain...

do u think that weird?

[faylinameir]

@TheMrCreepah nope I do it too! =-D

[danieldelaney]

Not at all - it's great!

[TwistedAlphonso1]

Yay thanx!

[danieldelaney]

@TwistedAlphonso1 For sure!

[faylinameir]

mm ginger =-) its my favorite flavor to put in almost everything. My favorite thing is pickled ginger (the stuff you get with sushi), and not to spam your channel but I have a video on my channel on how to make it =-) I like your video but... I'm not a big fan of ginger ale lol

[danieldelaney]

@faylinameir Yea! It certainly is great. Pickled ginger (called Gari) is killer. I'll check out your video!
