I really like the recipe because it is so easy and can be bottled immediately (instead of feeding a 'bug' over several days).
So now we wait and cross our fingers that none explodes (my mum had a batch once explode in the cupboard where she used to put the ironing!)
Try it for yourself:
4 cups white sugar
2 tablespoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons lemon essence
2 teaspoons tartaric acid
12 cups hot water
20 cups cold water
1 tablespoon yeast
Put all ingredients except yeast in bucket with 1 cup hot water. Stir to dissolve. Add rest of water in starting with hot and finishing with the cold water. Dissolve yeast in quarter a cup of luke-warm water (should just feel slightly warm on your skin). Stir yeast mixture into bucket. Bottle. Cross fingers!
Anyone else have some home-made drink recipes?
