In a saucepan, combine the water with the chopped ginger. Bring to a boil, then simmer, uncovered for 10 minutes
Remove from the heat and let it steep for 15 minutes. In the meantime, prepare the sweetener. Combine fresh squeezed lime juice and honey (or agave or maple syrup).
Strain liquid through a fine mesh strainer. Use the back of a wooden spoon to press any liquid out of the ginger. Discard ginger pieces or reserve for later use (in smoothies or cooking). (You should have about 2.5 cups of the ginger liquid after straining)
Combine the ginger water and sweetener. When ready to enjoy a glass of ginger ale, give the ginger base a stir, then pour it into a glass over ice until about ⅔rds full. Top with club soda or sparkling water and give it a stir. Enjoy immediately
