Method

• 1.
  Place the honey, mandarin juice, pulp, ginger, a pinch of salt and 8 cups (2L) water in a large clean bowl and stir to combine. Divide the mixture between two 8-cup (2L) capacity air-tight jars.
• 2.
  Leave to stand in a cool place to ferment for 4-7 days, depending on how quickly it becomes ‘active’. Check the jar daily and remove the lid to allow gases to escape. Once it has a fizz, strain the soda and place in the fridge. Do not leave to ferment once it starts to bubble as the jar may explode.
• 3.
  Alternatively, leave to stand in a cool place to ferment for 1-2 days and then strain and into a soda stream to create bubbles.
