Donovan’s Kickass Ginger Beer

Several cans of coconut water (available at Asian grocery)
12 cardamom pods, crushed, seeds only
2 vanilla beans, good quality
4 tbsp molasses
4 tbsp tamarind paste, no seeds (also available at Asian grocery)
2 kilos sugar

Juice: 12 tangerines
16 limes
3 cups fresh, raw ginger, save ginger pulp

Chilled fizzy water for tasting.

Add 2 kilos of sugar to juice of lime, tangerine and coconut water, bring to a soft simmer, stirring constantly so sugar doesn’t burn, add whole vanilla bean bruised with rolling pin or thick walled beer bottle, cardamom, tamarind, molasses. In clean sock, coffee filter, or fine mesh strainer, set ginger pulp to stew in mixture—imparts more ‘heat’.

Makes close to 5 litres of stock. Take 3 glasses, fill each an eighth full and add four parts fizzy store bought waterwater, five and six parts to each glass—taste and what you like is your dilution ratio. Remember it will taste hotter with more fizz, sweeter with less. Use more ginger if you know you like it on the hot side. Should make between 20 and 30 litres of pop, depending on taste.

hi Lalaine
I had a look in the FJ vault and I'm afraid I couldn't find any pop recipes. other than the gingerbeer. but i will say they were super improvised and tested with soda water. you can mix up a syrup by boiling down sugar and adding fresh flavours (i mix lemon and maple syrup for a simple lemon soda). I'll ask Nobu if he remembers any recipe... thanks for the post
