2 lb young nettle tops
1 gallon of water
8 oz of sugar
1/4 oz of fresh yeast
small piece of toast
1/4 oz of ground ginger
Boil the nettle tops in the water for half an hour. Strain and add
sugar, stirring to dissolve. Also stir in the ginger.
Pour mixture into a sterile container. Spread the yeast onto the toast
and float on the surface of the nettle liquid. Cover and leave for 3
days. Strain again and put into clean, strong screw top beer bottles.
