Steps:
- Put first measure of sugar in warm water to dissolve, add yeast and stir.
- Place in warm place to start working.
- Finely grate or slice rind from 2 lemons and place in a heatproof container with the 1 cup of sugar and the dried ginger.
- Pour over 1 cup of boiling water and leave to steep for 10 minutes.
- Strain into 1.5 L plastic bottle in which the ginger beer will be made.
- Top up bottle with cool water to near top so that final temp is approximately body temperature.
- Add yeast to bottle as soon as it shows signs of working, ie. it foams.
- Cap bottle tightly.
- Mix thoroughly and put in a warm place.
- Leave until bottle becomes undentable. Depending on the yeast this can take anything from 12 hours to 3 days, but best to check regularly, as there is a risk of explosion with this!
- Refrigerate until thoroughly chilled and open with great care!

REFRESHING NON-ALCOHOLIC GINGER BEER
In the summer this is a good non-alcoholic thirst quencher for young and old. It may stir a few memories for those of us who grew up in New Zealand with home-brewed ginger beer in the garden shed and got their kicks out of the excitement and danger of opening a bottle left a little too long...how times have changed! It will get fizzier with age, so take care opening it.
