Description

Ingredients

• 6 cups water
• 1 cup honey
• 1 cup lemon juice
• ½ cup fresh whey made by straining yogurt or kefir (See information on starters here.)

Directions

• Warm the water in a saucepan over low heat, keeping it just warm enough to dissolve the honey - about 100 F. Whisk in the honey continuously until fully dissolved in the water. Turn off the heat, and remove the pot from the stove.
• Whisk the lemon juice and whey into the honey water until fully incorporated.
• Pour the lemonade through a narrow funnel (like this one) into three flip-top bottles (find them here). Seal the bottles, and allow the lemonade to sit at room temperature to ferment at least four and up to seven days. You can open a bottle to check for fizziness and flavor, keeping in mind that the warmer your kitchen and the more time you allow, the sourer and more fizzy your soda will be.
