Building a book is a huge project and though authors get most of the credit, it would be delusional to think that the name on the cover is solely

responsible.

Two years ago my agent, Lisa Ekus, called to ask if I would be interested in writing a book on homemade sodas. Hesitant at first (the subject

originally seemed esoteric to me), I began researching fermentation (amazing subject), bottling (in my kitchen?), and the history of fizz. The

seduction didn’t take long and, working with Margaret Sutherland, Storey’s cookbook acquisitions editor, we quickly began to grasp exactly what a

comprehensive, user-friendly book on an “esoteric” subject might look like. Then the real work began — a year of experimenting, concocting,

writing, tasting, and cleaning up exploded soda bottles.

Since then I have tasted terrible swills and beautiful, subtle herbal blends. I learned how to nurse a speck of yeast into a bottle of silky bubbles

and I was exposed to a score of new ingredients and flavors. But when the hubbub subsided and the pages were all filled I wondered, as I often do,

“Do I really have a book here?” Fortunately for me, Storey hired a brilliant, hardworking and easy-to-work-with project editor, Shauna Toh, who

along with Nancy Ringer, the copy editor, helped organize the jumble I sent them into something that reads very much like a comprehensive text.

Meanwhile Alethea Morrison, the creative director at Storey, was taking the same manuscript and transforming it into beautiful pages. It wasn’t

until I saw her work that I knew we had something. What a wonderful surprise the day the first pages arrived!

Lastly an acknowledgment of sacrifice: while writing this book our kitchen was transformed into a carbonation laboratory, as bottle sanitizing took

precedence over counter space, so I give an apology to my wife, Karen Shain Schloss, for taking over her life with countless concoctions that burp,
