home brew
Lately I have been experimenting with making my own beer and wines. Just really simple stuff like ginger ale, mead, and wine. I found a recipe for ginger ale on wikipedia that was really simple. (ginger root, sugar, yeast, and water). It was pretty good, but I drank it before the alcohol content was much, ( I'm guessing it was about 3%) . Then I made some mead, (honey, yeast, water). After the initial fermentation, it tasted much like beer. I then added sugar and left it for about 10-14 more days. After a total of about 20 days, it tasted alot like cold duck. 32 ounces of it was enough to get me a little buzzed. I am now trying a nice "toilet wine" of grape juice, sugar, yeast and water. So far it has a lot of carbonation to it, so I think I'll add more sugar in a few more days, and maybe it will be ready by the 14th. I just like trying goofy recipes to see what will happen.
