Brew your own delicious drinks with the bounty of your garden or your local farmers market. You can use fresh fruit, herbs, juice, and even simple ingredients from your freezer and pantry to make one-gallon brews.
Amber says, "I have been conjuring up weird brews in my kitchen for over a decade. Over that time, I have made plenty of successful brews but I've also had a few failures. I am excited to share my learning experiences and my one-gallon recipes with you!"
This new collection of brewing recipes brings an exciting and healthful twist to home brewing by infusing herbs and other healing ingredients into the brews. Herbalism has gained popularity over the past couple of years, as more people seek a holistic approach to health and wellness.
This book builds off that trend in a fun, unique way with Amber Shehan’s recipes made from commonly found herbs, wildflowers, fruits, and other plants. Readers will love adding the healing benefits of herbs to their drinks to support their natural and holistic lifestyles.
Recharge at the end of a long day with a soothing glass of Rose Hip & Elderberry Wine, or sip a refreshing glass of Blackberry Cider on a sunshiny afternoon. Choose between the indulgent Dandelion Root Chocolate Stout, the light, floral Elderflower Saison, or the classic Chamomile Pale Ale.
Amber specially designed her recipes to make a single one-gallon batch of each drink, so readers can sample each of these thirst-quenching beverages guilt- (and waste-) free. Holistic healing has never tasted so good or been so much fun!
Recipes for mead, cider, wine, beer, and delicious snacks. Spent-grain granola, beers brewed with flowers, meads made with local honey, wines made from just about anything, and ciders both sweet and dry.
