Welp bread and wine making had lead me to home made soda and pro biocits lol found this stuff called a ginger bug . Looks easy enough and seems to be really good for you . Anyone use it for making their own soda or what have you ?

The poverty/deficit version of soda from my childhood was black tea-based kombucha. Pepsi was for birthdays.

If you like fermenting and marginally useful pets you'll like it. And they say it's very healthy.

My wife makes ginger beer. She bought more ginger yesterday. You can add what ever you want to flavor it. She made some with pineapple once, but she likes the plain ginger beer more. It is not hard to make, just a process.
