Homemade Ginger Ale
['1 1/2 cups chopped peeled ginger (7 ounces)', '2 cups water', '3/4 cup sugar', 'About 1 quart chilled seltzer or club soda', 'About 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice']
Cook ginger in water in a small saucepan at a low simmer, partially covered, 45 minutes. Remove from heat and let steep, covered, 20 minutes.
Strain mixture through a sieve into a bowl, pressing on ginger and then discarding. Return liquid to saucepan and add sugar and a pinch of salt, then heat over medium heat, stirring, until sugar has dissolved. Chill syrup in a covered jar until cold.
Mix ginger syrup with seltzer and lime juice (start with 1/4 cup syrup and 1 1/2 teaspoons lime juice per 3/4 cup seltzer, then adjust to taste).
