# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 - Combine filtered water and organic cane sugar in a cleaned glass jar, stirring until sugar is fully dissolved. Incorporate water kefir grains or ginger bug followed by fresh lemon juice. Mix gently using a non-metallic spoon.
02 - Cover the jar with a breathable cloth or coffee filter secured with a rubber band. Allow fermentation at ambient temperature (68–77°F) for 24 to 48 hours, until the brew develops gentle effervescence and tang.
03 - Remove kefir grains or ginger bug by straining the liquid through a fine mesh strainer. Reserve or discard the grains as preferred.
04 - In a pitcher, blend the fermented soda base with fresh orange juice, lime juice, and mint leaves. Stir gently to integrate flavors.
05 - Fill individual glasses with ice cubes. Pour prepared mocktail over ice, garnishing with a thin orange slice and additional mint if desired. Present immediately to enjoy optimal sparkle.
