I've tweaked a recipe I found on this site with a different recipe I found on this site. The spices are all from a ginger ale soda recipe, and the excessive amount of sugar is for the yeast. I think this will be dry, and I did this because even though I own a hydrometer I never use it, and have to guess when to bottle based on bubble activity. So I will pretend I am bottling beer and use either corn sugar or table sugar, once there's 'sufficient' slow down in fermentation.
:
2.5 lbs. Ginger root (peeled and chopped in food processor)
*****5 lbs. table sugar
1.25 cups lemon juice
2.5 tsp cinnamon
1.5 tsp nutmeg
1.5 tsp allspice
2.5 tsp fennel seed
1.25 tsp vanilla extract
5 gallons water......I use a 6.5 gallon carboy.
2 ec-1118 packets
I'll update this post once it's bottled.
