RE: It's Ginger Time! Sowing The Nodes & Learning More About This "Spicy" Root

I can't wait to see what your harvest looks like. I have been growing my own ginger here on the homestead for about 4 years. I have had great success with it and have had a really great crop this year. I am in the process of making some ginger beer. This is the second batch I have tried. The first batch was a little strong so we'll see what happens with this one.

Sort:  

Oh ginger beer??? That sounds good. I'm not a big beer person, or alcohol consumer, but the thought of ginger makes it sound so inviting.

Strong on the ginger side of flavor?

Ginger beer isn't alcoholic. It's kinda like ginger ale, but generally stronger. There are many brands, but some are better than others. The sugar content and sharpness varies. If you like ginger, you'll probably like this... although it can be very sugary.

Now see I'd probably like that- I'm sitting here right now sipping a ginger ale familiar to the people in Michigan called Vernor's. Made and distributed here in my state.

Right on! Yeah, you'd probably like it. Your local grocery store probably has something. If not, Costco has a ginormo pack of one brand.

Strong on ginger flavour, light on alcohol.
