Liberian Pineapple Ginger Beer, I love ginger beer! So when I found this I had to post it I hope you enjoy! Ginger beer both tastes good and is good for you Ginger root is high in vitamins K and B6 and also has magnesium Ginger root is believed to relief symptoms of arthritis, motion sickness, nausea, gastrointestinal distress, and cold symptoms Adapted from African Recipe Secrets Liberia is in West Africa , I think this has just the right amount of ginger spicyness to it The only store bought ginger beer I can find isn’t spicy enough for my DH and I He really likes this one I could only find about 1 5 lbs of ginger so used less water I added the 1 cup of sugar and that was enough for us I want to try to reduce some to make it stronger and add soda water to that to make it fizzy I hope that works Thanks Sharon123 Made for Please Review My Recipe tag game, July ’08
