Stock take refreshments served up retro style - from Kiwicakes test kitchen

Its all hands on deck this week at KiwiCakes while we do the annual stocktake and keep up with all of your orders. I thought a refreshing Homemade Ginger Beer might go down well with my hardworking colleagues.

I couldn't get my hands on the favourite family recipie as my parents are gallivanting around overseas this month so I settled for a googled version. It was pretty simple with ingredients many of us have at home anyway - water, sugar, lemon juice, ground ginger and yeast. This is the cheats overnight version but if you want a challenge then have a crack at making traditional Ginger Beer! It takes a week to mature but you get a really good crisp fizz. All you need are some empty bottles and a huge mixing bowl (or what i find even better is a 10 litre bucket dedicated to kitchen use).

Jazz it up for parties and picnics by serving your Ginger Beer in these cute Glass Bottles and remember everything tastes better through a Straw. We have more than 20 varieties in stock to suit any occasion.

Back to the boxes for us...
