Let’s get busy with the fizzy! This week we serve you a refreshing blend of history & horticulture (a.k.a. garden science), genetics, microscopic creatures & a pinch of chemistry, as we delve deeper into making of this popular beverage. Behind the flavours and fizz, there’s a complex symphony of science, and we’ll discuss current research that enhances our understanding processes that make this product. 

Special Guest:
