1
Prepare a sterilized glass jar with an airtight lid.

2
Peel the oranges, and separate into single sections.
-
3
Put all of the ingredients (2 oranges, 2 tablespoons honey, and water) into the jar.

The next step is to shake the jar once a day, or stir it with a stir stick, open the lid and smell it.

Day 1: This is what it should look like after all the ingredients are combined.

Just one more day!

Fizz!

11
Strain out the oranges through a tea strainer.

If you don't plan to use the liquid yeast right away, you can store the mixture in the refrigerator without straining out the oranges.

Store in jar.
-
14
I store it in the crisper drawer of my refrigerator.

It should be used up within a month.

If you leave 1 spoonful of the liquid yeast and add it to a new jar of mixture, it should fizz up within 24 hours.

Just add 1 mandarin orange, 2 tablespoons honey, water and 1 tablespoon of the liquid yeast.
