The Ginger Bug, once made can be stored in the fridge for 4 weeks, feeding the day before you wish to use it again. It is resilient and can be kept this way for years.

Don’t limit yourself to just this soda, experiment with any fruit, using the skin for the microbes. Traditional Ginger Beer and Lemonade are great starting points.
