There are some plans which you just know are dangerous - but you just got to try.
We are touring Spain and it is very hot so I need plenty of something to drink that won't leave me horizontal before the sun goes down. Ginger Beer!!!
Of course I can't buy it here so I need to set up a mobile home brewery in the garage (of the motorhome, of course).
Anyone tried it without blowing the whole thing up?
What is the Spanish for a Ginger Beer Plant? Google thinks it is some sort of machine (plant?!?)
What sort of shop would you ask the Tourist Information Officer in Valencia to direct you to?
Do you have to pay duty if it goes alcoholic?
Answers please...

Thanks for that. I think that looks like a good recipe for me.
Actually, that helped more than just the recipe. Google managed to translate "Brewers yeast" to "levadura de cerveza" and back to "yeast" so I am reasonably confident the language barrier is broken!
A little worried by A Fox,s comment. Could be a lively brew. Maybe I should avoid speed bumps during the hot weather...

Used to make this a lot when I was younger, also nettle beer and 'real' lemonade.

We just used bread yeast - none of this Ginger Beer Plant business - make a fairly conventional lemonade (fresh lemons, water, sugar to taste), bung in a load of fresh chopped or powdered ginger, bung in some bread yeast. Leave until it gets fizzy. Pour off a jug-load at a time, (which you put in the fridge to cool) and replenish the liquid you've removed with more water / sugar / ginger. Initial ferment can take a few days to get going.

Much the same as HF-W's recipe in @cronkle's post above.
