Homemade Ginger Ale

I found this recipe in this month's Bon Appetit.  I am a huge fan of just about any recipe that involves fresh ginger, so this one looked too good to pass up.  I haven't made it yet, but I want to get it posted here so I can throw away the page I tore out!

I wonder if this ginger concentrate would be good in a booze drink...??!

Homemade Ginger Ale

Combine 1/2 cup honey, 1/2 cup sliced peeled ginger, and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan.  Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until flavors meld, about 15 minutes.  Remove from heat and let cool. 

Strain syrup into a large pitcher.  Add 4 cups club soda, fresh mint and ice. Stir gently and divide among 8 oz glasses.
