A Ginger Bug is the traditional culture used to make fizzy sodas the old-fashioned way.

A Ginger Bug is a powerful living probiotic culture made from a combination of ginger, sugar, and water which is allowed to ferment over time.

Ginger Bugs are what we use to transform our Soda Flavor Spices into fizzy probiotic-rich drinks.

Just one! 

All you need is one Ginger Bug culture to make unlimited sodas.

Your Ginger Bug grows in size with each daily feeding and can live forever with proper care.

To make a batch of soda, you'll only need to use a small amount of your Ginger Bug each time. 

Our Ginger Bug is fed a completely organic diet of organic ginger root, organic raw sugar, and filtered water. 

A Ginger Bug is a living culture made from gut-friendly lactobacillus bacteria & yeast--kind of like a sourdough starter. 

A Ginger Bug is a completely organic culture created via the wild fermentation of raw ginger root. By combining ginger, sugar, and water, these gut-friendly bacteria (or "bugs" as we like to call them) multiply and create a powerful concentrated symbiotic culture. 

Our Ginger Bug Starter Kit includes 1 packet of Dehydrated Ginger Bug starter along with instructions on how to activate your Ginger Bug in just a few days.

Our Ginger Bug Starter Kit comes with detailed instructions on how to activate and maintain your starter.

Activation involves feeding your Ginger Bug some ginger, sugar, and water each day until it is and active happy bug.

Your Ginger Bug should be stored in a warm spot in your home (like in a kitchen cabinet for example).

If you are traveling and cannot feed your Ginger Bug everyday, you can store your Ginger Bug in the refrigerator and feed it once per week instead of every day.

Here's how to store your Ginger Bug in the refrigerator:

Step 1: Feed your Ginger Bug.

Step 2: Pour your Ginger Bug into a glass container with an airtight lid.

Step 3: Place your Ginger Bug in your refrigerator in a spot that does not get too cold. For example, avoid the very back of the refrigerator or other locations that may drop below freezing. 

Step 4: Feed your Ginger Bug once per week.

To use your Ginger Bug after refrigeration, remove it from the fridge and place it back at room temperature. Remove the airtight lid and replace it with your muslin cloth. Feed your Ginger Bug ginger, sugar, and water for a few days until bubbles return before making soda.

Easy!

To keep your active Ginger Bug alive, simply feed it everyday with a small amount of sugar & water per the instructions in your Ginger Bug Starter Kit. 

Making homebrewed couldn't be easier. The basic process goes like this:

• Step 1- Brew your soda according to instructions.
• Step 2 - In a glass car, combine your soda brew, sugar, and your Ginger Bug starter.  
• Step 3 - Cover the glass jar and set in a dark location to ferment for 24 hours. 
• Step 4 - After 24 hours, bottle your soda into glass swing-top homebrew bottles (like these) to capture the bubbles. Let ferment for another 12-24 hours before refrigerating. Enjoy cold!
