How To Make Old Fashioned Ginger Beer
There’s nothing better than a cold refreshing ginger beer after a long hot day.
The following recipe is to make a batch of ginger beer using a ginger beer plant or living culture of ginger and yeast. The whole process takes almost 2 weeks. After further experimentation I have made a fizzy ginger beer without the addition of yeast. It turned out surprisingly well, just by leaving the ginger beer ‘plant’ out on the bench for 5 days open to the air, covered with mesh. I have adapted the recipe slightly for the yeast free ginger beer below.
