Wild fermented drinks

Beers, wines, mead, lemonades... homemade!

The book Wild Fermented Drinks: Lemonades, Beers, Wines, Meads will introduce all budding fermentation enthusiasts and experienced homebrewers to the secrets of wild and domesticated herbs, fruits, berries and other natural ingredients from which you can make delicious alcoholic beverages yourself.

The art of preparing bubbly drinks does not end with the basic ingredients: barley, hops, yeast and water. Before the iconic brewing of beer, people used a whole galaxy of other wild and cultivated plants, fruits, berries and other natural materials to prepare fermented drinks.

This book is intended for food and drink lovers, chefs, plant and herb foragers, and cottage and cabin owners. It contains stories and practical procedures for preparing lemonades, cordials, homemade wines, primitive herbal beers, meads, and traditional drinks like tiswin and kvass.
