Has anyone tried fermenting plain water with yeast and sugar? Now that I have an empty fermenter I'm considering tinkering around with seeing what ABV% I can get like that. If it comes out around 3-5% then add a bottle of the rootbeer syrup and see how that is. Just wondering if anyone has tried it and how it might have turned out.
Fermenting water?

Don't forget to add hops to your hoochwater.
Well according to her profile she is a 38 year old woman, and not a highschooler or frat boy on Christmas Break.

Survey says....Sounds like a bad idea.
Oh, it will probably work. Enjoy your unique version of fire water!
Isn't this the same person who asked the last stupid hooch question?

Another cool thing to try is fermenting orange juice. I accidentally left an Odwalla OJ in the back of my car once for a few months during the spring. It started to ferment without my knowledge, and come summertime it blew up with the increase in temperature. Smelled awesome all over my back seat...made me want to throw up. But you should try drinking something like that, it would probably be great.

Why would you do that if you can just drink mouthwash? Oh yeah probably cheaper, proceed.
My god it's brilliant. Fermented water would have no calories and no alcohol!
