Recipe: Naturally Fermented Raspberry Ginger Soda

One of my favorite ways to use fermentation is in making my own sodas and even hard ciders. It's relatively easy, produces a delicious and MUCH healthier beverage than you can buy in any store, and is a lot of fun!

This naturally fermented raspberry soda is easy to make, and absolutely delicious! It contains lots of natural wild yeasts and probiotic bacteria to help aid digestion, and it's packed with the fresh juicy flavors of late summer raspberries, with a kick of ginger.

Raspberry Ginger Soda

Ingredients:

• 6 cups fresh or frozen raspberries
• 1 cup water
• 1 cup ginger bug (get the recipe here)

Instructions:

1. Puree the raspberries in a food processor or blender, and then strain them through a fine-mesh sieve or piece of cheesecloth, pressing them to extract about two cups of juice. Discard the seeds.
2. Stir the ginger bug well to aerate it and to distribute the wild yeast and bacteria it contains, and then strain about a cup of the ginger bug liquid into the raspberry juice. Return any stray bits of ginger that remain in your strainer to your ginger bug container. Whisk water into the raspberry and ginger bug.
