Questions
Good to know
I've never fermented anything. Can I really do this?
Yes. Our kits are made for first timers. Each one comes with a ginger bug culture, easy picture instructions, and our Soda School email class. If you can stir a jar once a day, you can make your own soda.
How long does it take to make a batch?
Your kit comes with a dehydrated ginger bug culture. First you wake it up, which takes about 5 to 7 days. Once your ginger bug is awake, a batch of soda takes less than 48 hours from start to finish.
Can I choose my own flavors?
Yes. You pick your flavors when you check out. Mix and match, or load up on a favorite. Your ginger bug works with all of them.
Is homemade ginger bug soda alcoholic?
No. Like kombucha, the natural fermentation makes only a tiny trace of alcohol, usually well under 0.5%. The result is a fizzy, probiotic soda the whole family can enjoy.
When will my order ship?
Orders ship from Sandpoint, Idaho within 1 to 2 business days. Shipping is free on orders over $40.
What if something isn't right?
We stand behind every order. If anything arrives damaged, just reach out and we will make it right.

Reviews for Complete Soda Making Kit
“This kit has all you need to start a ginger bug and then flavor your first batch of soda. Easy peasy!”
“I love my ginger bug! So far it has been really easy to maintain and make great tasting soda at home, I have made delicious Moscow Mules with homemade ginger beer which was awesome, and I made cream soda for my mom as a gift since it’s her favorite soda.”
“Exactly as described and were having fun experimenting! Ingredients are easily identified and nothing fake.”
“I’ve made all of the flavors and loved them. Wish we could figure out a way to use less sugar, but still get the sweetness needed”
Sandpoint Soda
Thank you for your review! You can always make your sodas less sweet by reducing the amount of sugar in the recipe or fermenting your sodas in the bottle for an extra day.
“I had a little trouble with getting the ginger bug started, but the instructions on the website for what to do helped me get it back on track. I’ve made lots of juice based sodas, now and they’ve all been great so far!”
“Love this stuff! The kit has literally everything you need which is super convenient for newbies like me. I’ve made Root Beer and Ginger Beer so far and both turned out great… Bubbly and refreshing without that overly sweet flavor of store bought stuff. Super happy I decided to try these soda kits!”
“Received this as a gift. Easy to follow instructions, the results from the spice sets it comes with were great, I’ve also made the recipe cards and am moving on to experimenting. The biggest thing I recommend is that you look up how to rest a ginger bug (and how to revive it) because that jar just gets too full with daily feedings if you only make a small amount. Oh, and be aware that if your kitchen tends to the cooler side, it might need more time than the instructions but for me it still worked.”
“Yum! What a fun way to stay healthier and show my kids new things!”
“Lovely packaging! Really neat and easy to understand. Definitely high quality! LOVING that the ingredients are all Organic, wildcrafted! And taste amazing 👏”
“This is so much fun! I love making stuff like this at home and sharing that fun with my family, and Sandpoint soda makes this easy with their instructions and online help. You can tell they care about their product and helping you brew successfully. Not only is it better for you than anything you would buy at a store, but you can play with the recipes and my family can come up with new ideas.”
“Quality product with detail step by step instructions”
“I really like this kit! It was a little bit of a learning curve based on my home’s temperature (we like to keep our house cooler), but once I figured that out it was easy to use!”
“Great way to get started with natural soda fermentation at home. The company has great customer support and will quickly respond to any questions or issues. My ginger bug is still going strong after several months. I tried the Elderberry and Root Beer flavor kits. The Elderberry was fantastic and everyone who tried it agreed. The root beer was good but not quite the root beer flavor I expected. I have begun experimenting with different batches and trying my own flavors. I love the tiny bubble fermentation instead of the fake injected large bubble carbonation of store bought soda.”
