Ginger Lime Beer

I just wanted to post a recipe that I've been making recently. It's pretty tasty. This makes one liter.

32 oz of water
1/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup of fresh lime juice (about 3 limes)
1 teaspoon of ginger powder
2 inches of fresh ginger (cut into about 5 pieces)
1/4 tsp cream tartar (optional)

Heat up water. Once it is close to a boil, put everything in, stir so that the sugar dissolves, and boil for 5 minutes.

For carbonation, I use my CO2 setup with the carbonator cap.

You seem to be missing the "ferment" step

Since I use CO2 with the carbonator cap, there is no fermentation step in the soda making process for me so I have no suggestions for those who use yeast to carbonate their sodas. Sorry...
