As a children we  made ginger beer with my Mom, there were times when it all went completely haywire but it mostly worked and was wonderful.

This week I have been experimenting with ginger beer ‘plants’ and have made one using yeast, sugar and ground ginger and one with fresh ginger and sugar.  So far both seem to be doing what they are supposed to do, and hopefully in the next week will make some ginger beer, if it succeeds I’ll write up the recipe in case anyone else has a hankering for the old fashioned ‘pop’.
