HOMEMADE GINGER BEER



Homemade Ginger Beer image

To get the full aromatic flush and fizzy burn of fresh ginger, you have to make your own ginger beer. It is amazingly simple. There's no sterilization needed, and this method is forgiving - you can actually play about with the levels and ingredients. Moreover, the resulting ginger beer blows anything else you've ever had straight out of contention. Take a pinch of packaged yeast and something acidic for the yeast to thrive in (like lemon or lime juice or cream of tartar) along with some sugar syrup and grated ginger, lob it all in a plastic bottle of distilled or spring water, shake it up and stash it somewhere dark and warm for two days. After two days you stop the fermentation by chilling it in the fridge. That's it. The result is a cloudy, dry mixer with pinprick carbonation and a straight-up goose of fresh ginger. That is thrilling come dark 'n' stormy hour, not just for its authenticity and superior flavor but also because you can now brag about your homemade ginger beer.

Categories     non-alcoholic drinks

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 ounces freshly grated ginger
4 ounces lemon juice
6 ounces simple syrup
1/8 teaspoon commercial baker's, brewer's or Red Star Pasteur Champagne yeast
20 ounces non-chlorinated water (filtered, distilled or spring)
1 to 4 grams cream of tartar (not necessary, but traditional, to help the yeast and bacteria thrive).

Steps:

  • Take a 1.5-liter plastic bottle of spring water and empty it into a clean pitcher. Use some of it to make simple syrup by stirring 1/2 pound sugar into 1 cup hot water until fully dissolved.
  • In a large measuring cup, mix all ingredients and stir well. Funnel back into the plastic bottle and cap tightly. Store in a warm, dark place for 24 to 48 hours. (I put mine inside a box, to contain it if it should blow.) The top of the bottle will expand and become tight. Check it and very slowly release the pressure if it's looking groaningly tight. Some people ferment it with no top, or with the top on loosely, to allow gas to escape. I suppose if you wanted to get fancy you could spend $1.50 on a fermentation lock and stop worrying about it. If the temperature is quite warm, above 80F, a single day may be sufficient. The longer you let it ferment, the drier the final mix will be.
  • After 48 hours, refrigerate it to stop the fermentation. Once chilled, you can strain out the pulp and dead yeast, which will have made a sediment on the bottom. Makes 1 liter and will keep up to a week in the refrigerator.

HOMEBREW GINGER BEER



Homebrew Ginger Beer image

I've developed this recipe over a long period of time, but it's all flexible... start with this recipe, and develop it on your own. Variations abound. NOTE: I always make this recipe in 2 Litre plastic water bottles. Some people say you shouldn't do this, but I have no idea why - always works perfectly for me.

Provided by FusionCat

Categories     Beverages

Time P3DT1h

Yield 2 Litres, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 whole gingerroot
1/2 teaspoon yeast
3/4 cup sugar
15 cloves
1/4 teaspoon anise

Steps:

  • Take about a half-cup of warm water, and mix with sugar. Then sprinkle yeast on top. Let sit.
  • Boil about 2 litres of water.
  • Peel the ginger root and cut into smaller pieces.
  • When water has been brought to a boil, add the ginger root, cloves, and anise. I like to put the cloves in a small tea ball so i can remove them easily later.
  • Boil for 30 minutes. Then remove ginger root and cloves.
  • Dissolve 3/4 - 1 cup of sugar in the brew.
  • Let the brew cool until it is tepid (ie won't kill the yeast). Then add they yeast mixture to it.
  • Now pour the mixture into a 2 litre plastic bottle. Top up with water. Make sure you leave between 5-8cm of air in the top. Play with this amount -- you'll find you get more pressure if you leave the air inches.
  • Now leave in a warmish place for about 1 day. Watch it carefully the first time - wait until the pressure has built up, then refrigerate.
  • Leave in the fridge for at least 2 days. If you leave it in longer, you'll get more pressure -- I usually leave it at least 2 weeks, but it can stay in there for 2 months. Still, it will continue to gain pressure in the refrigerator.
  • When you open the bottle, be very CAREFUL! The pressure should be very high by this time. It's best to do it over the sink or outside, and do NOT aim at anyone! If you cover the cap while you open it, it will muffle the "pop". Instead, don't cover the top of the cap, but only touch the sides of the cap while you open it. In this way, it will fire like a gun.
  • If you've got good pressure, it will bubble out like champagne, so have glasses on hand ot pour right away!

JAMAICAN GINGER BEER



Jamaican Ginger Beer image

My friend from St. Kitts says to skip the yeast to avoid the carbonated alcohol. He laughs at America's fascination with bubbles in their drinks. For Mel Torme I added the 'tiny bubbles'. Add flavors of your choice (vanilla, almond, bay leaves, cloves, allspice, etc.).

Categories     Drinks Recipes

Time P3DT15m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 quarts boiling water
3 cups white sugar, divided
½ pound ginger root with skin, grated
½ cup honey
½ cup lime juice
1 cup fresh brewers' yeast

Steps:

  • Remove 1/2 cup of the boiling water and set aside to cool to lukewarm.
  • Combine remaining boiling water, 2 cups sugar, ginger, honey, and lime juice in a large plastic container.
  • Mix the 1/2 cup lukewarm water, 1 cup sugar, and yeast together in a separate bowl. Let stand until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy paste, about 5 minutes; stir into ginger mixture. Cover container and let sit for 3 days. Skim foam from top, strain liquid, and pour ginger beer into clean storage containers; chill.
