Drop a bit of trubb, maybe ec1118 in with some sugar?

Just spitting in the breeze, thoughts?


It would depend on the environment the yeast was in, for example the acid level, temp and the like.
Plus it would have to be a sugar free type soda, otherwise the yeast will ferment the sodas sugar as well.
I'm sure it could be done, but it would depend on what and how.

Hadn't thought of the sugar side

Maybe an low alc tolerance yeast, one that quits at 6% or thereabouts, not sure how much fizz you would end up with if it's only adding a % or so...

I don't generally like artificial sweeteners, but there may be one that yeast dosent eat?

Kinda headed towards brewed alcopops with that I suppose... :puke-huge:

One day when I get a Carter head I'm going to try cola ingredients through it with some uj lols

If you don't like artificial sweeteners you are probably best off force carbonating. That way there will be no yest alive, in the spirit or the soda. Otherwise it will defiantly eat the sugar from soda as well as what ever you add, however depending on chemistry they might not eat either.
