Method
- Grate the fresh ginger until you have about a cup.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated ginger, sugar, and lemon juice.
- Pour in the filtered water and stir well until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Sprinkle the champagne yeast over the mixture and give it a gentle stir.
- Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let it sit at room temperature for 24 hours.
- After 24 hours, strain the mixture using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into another clean bowl.
- Using a funnel, carefully pour the strained liquid into your glass or plastic bottles, leaving some space at the top.
- Seal the bottles tightly and let them sit at room temperature for 3-7 days.
- Check them daily for pressure, and refrigerate once they are fizzy enough for your liking.
Notes
Always burp the bottles daily to prevent over-carbonation.
