Tasty Summer Drink


That first batch of ginger beer came out real nice. I borrowed this photo from the site that I got the recipes from, if you click the title above it will take you there and you can learn how to make some yourself. It is crisp and bubbly with a nice strong ginger and lime flavor, the alcohol content was low, less than 1%, so kids could drink it and it was homemade. This type of beverage is not intended to be an alcohol libation. I have since made more and as of today I am making my most "gingery" one of them all, I hope this has a lot of bite. I am also making a "mead" type beverage that will sit for a couple of months to ferment, this one should pack a punch.

Ginger Beer


These are two bottles of "brew" I am currently making. The one on the right is not creating as much pressure as the one on the left so I am going to stop its fermentation process and refrigerate it so I can test what it is doing. It should be sweet and gingery with no alcohol. The one on the left I am going to try and shelf it for a couple of months so that its alcohol content can increase....we will see.
