    Yu-lade is essentially disolve sugar, cool, add the bottle. Couldn’t be easier, has citric acid in it for preserving. Yeasts if you want an alcaholic version I suppose, but it isn’t the done thing. It’s got enough kick in it already, with some sort of capsicum also in it!

    Sterlize your bottles and it’ll keep for another Christmas too

    Never heard of bus refunds, sounds a pain to claim though. And if you brew today you can probably have an IPA for Christmas week. You’ve inspired me to make some Ginger Wine, I’ve a bottle of yu-lade ginger essence from last year still - goes great with mince pies and christmas cake
