GINGER BEER
From "South of the Sahara: Traditional Cooking from the Lands of West Africa" by Elizabeth A. Jackson. It's cold but it tingles! Plan to let it sit at room temperature for at least a day before chilling. Chilling time is not included in the prep time.

Steps:
- Wash and then grind or grate the ginger, peel and all and place in a large bowl or pitcher.
- Juice the limes and add the lime juice, the lime peels, the sugar and the cream of tartar to the ginger.
- Pour the boiling water over the ginger mixture and allow to sit for at least two hours, stirring occasionally, until the mixture has cooled to room temperature.
- Making sure the water is at room temperature (if it is too hot, it will kill the yeast), strain the mixture into a large pitcher or jar with a cover.
- Sprinkle the yeast over the top of the strained liquid and let it sit uncovered for about five minutes so the yeast softens.
- Now stir the mixture, cover it and leave it to sit at room temperature for 24 hours.
- Strain again, chill and serve cold.
- Note: This is not an overly sweet drink and not one in which you can substitute splenda for the sugar as the yeast feeds on the sugar.
GINGER BEER
Steps:
- Wash ginger root but do not peel. Chop roughly and process in food processor until reduced to a textured paste. Put ginger in a large non reactive container and pour boiling water over it. Stir in the lime juice, zest and cream of tartar. Cover and stir occasionally as mixture cools. When lukewarm, mix the yeast with the warm water, pressing out lumps, and add to container. Cover and let stand for 6 hours. Stir the sugar into the ginger beer until completely dissolved and immediately pour into sterilized bottles, making sure the stoppers are well sealed and airtight. The ginger beer will keep for 3 to 4 days in a cool place. To keep longer, add rum.
- To serve, strain and pour into glasses (over shaved ice if desired), with a sprig of mint and thin slice of lime.
GINGER BEER
Ginger beer is nature's champagne. this is the recipe my mother and grandmother used to make. It is a delicious refreshing drink on hot summer days. Caution: Bottles must be stored in a cool place and not shaken. Chill thoroughly before opening but be prepared for it to fizz over. While storing it is a good idea to cover with large piece of plastic in case a cap blows or a bottle

Steps:
- -------TO GET BUG WORKING-------.
- Mix the yeast, ground ginger, 2 tspns of sugar and lukewarm water together in a large glass jar.
- Cover with a cloth (the sort of material that you would use to strain jelly through as the bug needs to breathe).
- Let stand for 24 hours.
- After this feed the bug every day for 10 days with 1 tspn of ground ginger and 1 tspn of sugar.
- ---------TO MAKE THE BEER----------.
- Put 1 litre of the water and the sugar in a saucpan.
- Heat gently while stirring until the sugar dissolves.
- Take off the heat and add the rest of the water and the lemon juice.
- Without disturbing the sediment, strain the ginger beer bug liquid through 2 layers of scalded muslin.
- Add this liquid to the sugared water.
- Pour the mixture into clean bottles, cap tightly and leave to stand for 2 days, or until it starts to fizz.
- After this, it must be kept in a cool place or the fridge to prevent the tops blowing.
- I use a sterilizing powder obtained from home brew shops to sterilize my bottles.
- After making the beer divide the sediment in the jar into two.
- You now have 2 bugs to feed and can double the beer recipe.
- As you double the bugs each time you increase the number of bottles you can produce.
- After all available surfaces are covered with bug jars and you are swamped with beer you can give the extra bugs away to get others on the treadmill.

GINGER BEER
Being from the Caribbean, ginger beer is particularly close to my heart. It has to be made right, with fresh ginger, to give it both the flavor and that zing. A lot of folks will ferment theirs by adding some yeast to it. Personally, I prefer the taste of an unfermented ginger beer, so I just top it off with soda water to give it some fizz.

Steps:
- Prepare the ginger: Chop the ginger into small cubes, leaving the skin on but removing any impurities. Add half of the ginger to the blender, along with the water. Blend until smooth, and then strain into a bowl, pressing the ginger pulp to get all of the flavor. Return pressed pulp to the blender, along with half of the remaining ginger and the strained liquid. Strain and repeat, and then do it once more with the remaining ginger. This method will extract maximum ginger flavor and should be done a total of 3-4 times. Taste for flavor and "zing" and repeat the process again if desired.
- Finish the ginger beer: Make the ginger beer by adding lime juice and sugar to the ginger water. Stir and taste for sweetness. Add more sugar if desired. To serve, add ice cubes to a tall glass, follow with ginger beer, and top it off with soda water. Stir again and serve.

Steps:
- Put the ginger in a saucepan set over a low heat with the lemon peel, sugars and 500ml water and stir until the sugars have dissolved. Increase the heat to medium, then simmer for 15-20 mins, or until reduced and syrupy. Remove from the heat and leave to cool completely.
- Strain the syrup into a jug through a sieve lined with muslin. At this stage, you can transfer the syrup to a small sterilised bottle or jar and keep in the fridge for up to two weeks.
- Pour the ginger syrup into a large serving jug. Tip in the lemon juice, fill with ice and top up with the soda water. Serve garnished with a few mint sprigs.
