Ginger Root

Ginger is a versatile root vegetable commonly used in many different cuisines around the world. It has a distinctively pungent, spicy, and slightly sweet taste. It has a fibrous texture that can be tough to chew, so it is usually grated, minced, or sliced before using in cooking.

We take pride in providing organic produce that is free from harmful chemicals, herbicides, or pesticides. Our produce is carefully hand-picked and packed on the same day of delivery to ensure optimal freshness, flavor, and nutritional value.

📓 Homemade Ginger Beer Recipe
🧂 Ingredients:
  • 2-3 inches fresh ginger root
  • 1 cup organic cane sugar
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup ginger bug starter (see instructions below)
  • 8 cups filtered water
🥄 Instructions:
  1. First, make the ginger bug starter: grate 2-3 inches of unpeeled ginger root into a quart-sized jar. Add 1/4 cup organic cane sugar and 2 cups filtered water. Stir well and cover with a cloth or paper towel secured with a rubber band. Leave at room temperature for 2-3 days, stirring once a day. After a few days, you should see bubbles forming on the surface, indicating that the ginger bug is active and ready to use.
  2. Peel and grate another 2-3 inches of ginger root and add it to a large pot with 8 cups of filtered water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer for 10 minutes.
  3. Remove the pot from the heat and add 1 cup of organic cane sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved, then let the mixture cool to room temperature.
  4. Strain the ginger mixture into a large glass jug or container, discarding the ginger solids.
  5. Add 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice and 1/2 cup of the ginger bug starter to the ginger mixture. Stir well to combine.
  6. Cover the jug or container with a cloth or paper towel secured with a rubber band, and let sit at room temperature for 2-3 days. Check the mixture daily for signs of carbonation (you should see bubbles forming on the surface), and give it a gentle stir to redistribute the ginger bug.
  7. Once the ginger beer is carbonated to your liking, transfer it to the fridge to slow down the fermentation process. The ginger beer will keep for several weeks in the fridge.
  8. When ready to serve, pour the ginger beer into a glass, and enjoy!

Note: Be careful when opening the bottle or jar, as the ginger beer may be highly carbonated and could potentially spray out.
