A soft drink is made by using a concentrated flavour
kit and adding water to make up the volume to 23 litres. A sterilised 25
litre brew barrel is sufficient to mix the 'brew'. A measured dose of
sugar is then added to the 'brew' and it is bottled straight away. We find
plastic P.E.T. bottles the best for soft drinks as the light will not effect the
drink, however stubbies can also be used. The sugar is merely used to
carbonate the bottle and the bottles must be stored in a warm area for at least
3 weeks to produce the bubbles.
We stock the following range of soft drink mixes:-
Beermakers ginger beer $20.50 - a mild ginger flavour
with artificial sweeteners.
Coopers ginger beer $13.50 - a traditional sweet ginger
flavour.
Colony West ginger beer $16.50 - a spicy hot ginger
flavour with the natural sweetener of lactose.
Colony West lemonade $16.50 - a traditional lemonade
with the natural sweetener of lactose.
Morgans ginger beer $16.50 - a traditional sweet ginger
flavour.
It is worth bearing in mind that you can always add
more ginger to the ginger beer or the zest of a lemon to the lemonade to give it
your own personal touch.
