1. In a clean jar, mix the grated ginger, sugar, and water. Stir well.
2. Cover the jar loosely with a clean cloth and secure it with a rubber band.
3. Leave it at room temperature for 3–5 days, stirring once daily. The ginger bug is ready when it becomes fizzy and you see bubbles forming.

Step 2: Prepare the Ginger Beer Base

1. In a medium saucepan, bring 1 liter of water to a boil.
2. Add the grated ginger and sugar, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
3. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.

Step 3: Ferment the Ginger Beer

1. Once the ginger mixture has cooled, strain it into a clean bottle or jar to remove the ginger pieces.
2. Add the lemon juice and ½ cup of the prepared ginger bug starter. Stir well.
3. Seal the bottle tightly and let it ferment at room temperature for 1–3 days, depending on how fizzy you like your ginger beer.

Step 4: Refrigerate and Serve

1. Once the desired level of fizz is achieved, transfer the bottle to the refrigerator to slow the fermentation.
2. Serve chilled over ice, garnished with mint or lime if desired.
