I really love ginger ale.
Faster Ginger Ale

Bring 2 cups of water to a rolling boil in a saucepan. Add 3/4 cup finely chopped ginger. Reduce heat to simmer for 10 minutes. Let cool for 30 minutes. Strain out liquid with a fine mesh strainer, discarding ginger.

Bring 1 cup water to a boil in a separate saucepan. Dissolve the sugar in the boiling water. Let cool.

Mix ginger water with simple syrup. Add club soda and fresh lime juice to taste.
Or just dream about it until you can figure out somehow to enjoy it without any sugar in it.
