Ginger Beer
- Drink
Ingredients:
16 ounces (or a couple of large handfuls) fresh ginger
1 or 2 limes’ juice
1 stick cinnamon (optional)
1 tsp. Whole cloves (optional)
1 cup sugar, or to taste
Directions
Wash the ginger and peel it, being careful to remove only the outer
layer of skin. Grind or pound to a pulp, and place in a large, heat-proof
container that is enamelled or made of glass or stainless steel.
Cover with 1/2 gallon (8 cups) of boiling water. Set the mixture
aside in a warm place. (You may want to protect it from dust by
covering the container loosely with a cloth.)
After an hour or so, strain the liquid through a cloth, squeezing
pulp to extract all the flavour. Stir in limejuice, cinnamon, half
the cloves and 1/2 gallon of cold water. Let liquid sit for another
hour, in the sun if possible.
Pour the mixture gently through a cloth to strain it, trying not
to disturb any sediment at the bottom. Strain again if necessary.
Stir in the remaining cloves, then transfer the ginger beer to a
jar and refrigerate
