60 gm. root ginger, bruised
Peel and juice of 2 lemons
450 gm sugar
15 gm cream of tartar
Yeast and nutrient
4.5 litres water
Peel the lemons, removing all the white pith. Place the peel in a brewing bin with the ginger, sugar and cream of tartar. Pour on 2 pints boiling water and stir to dissolve the sugar. Allow to cool before adding the lemon juice and yeast and the remaining water. Stir well, cover and keep in a warm place for a week. Siphon off into pint bottles and add ½ tsp. sugar to each bottle. Seal them tightly and keep in a warm place for 3 days and then remove to a cool place for storage.
This is alcoholic!
