DIY Fermenting Sodas

Learn to create simple, traditionally fermented sodas like root beer and ginger ale using probiotic starter cultures and real roots, spices and barks!  This workshop will start with a brief discussion of the history, nutritive value and simple technique of lacto-fermenting beverages with a ginger bug culture or whey culture.  You will then try a medley of sample brews and they will show you how to brew a big pot of root beer and ferment it with whey. After learning about fermented sodas, you will get the opportunity to make your own ginger bug culture! You will be able to bring home both a bottle of class-brewed root beer and your ginger bug starter culture to ferment sodas at home.  At the end of the workshop, you will recieve a 10% discount on Preserved's store.
