Howdy!
I am looking alter this recipe and to yeast carbonate. Any help, if possible, is greatly appreciated.

Ingredients:

* Water (half the amount of blueberries)
* Blueberries (double the amount of water)
* Lime juice (half a lime for every cup of water)
* Soda water (16 oz. for every half cup of syrup)

Directions:
# Pour the water in a saucepan.
#
2
Add the lime juice to the water.
#
3
Get the temperature mid heat.
#
4
When the water and lime juice is boiling, add the blueberries and stir.
#
5
Keep stirring until it becomes a thick syrup.
#
6
Add soda water to the syrup.
 
I saw this recipe earlier at: http://www.wikihow.com/Make-Blueberry-Soda

Alton Brown's recipe is here: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/blueberry-soda-recipe/index.html

It seems like a few more steps, but I think they're helpful.

In the end they both come down to adding carbonated water to the syrup.

You could always figure out your volume of syrup and water needed to bring the batch to full strength then bottle in 2 liter bottles.
But I'm more inclined to recommend you keep it as a syrup and add the carbonated water.
 
Thanks...I did see the alton brown recipe but that is too much sugar for my tastes.

May I ask why you are recommending the carb'd water?
