i have made a simple drink. apple juice 1 ltr, boiled water 1ltr with a 1lb of sugar dissolved in added to the 2 ltr bottle after it had cooled down and bakers yeast and the balloon on top how long will it take and what you opinion thanks

About 10 days for full fermentation. Depends really, when its stopped bubbling and totally calm on the surface. Without using a hydrometer you can only use the above method.

Don't forget to add a teaspoon of sugar per half litre when you bottle it (with tight fitting lid) else it'll be flat. That'll take a further week to ferment and carbonate.

TBH you're better off buying some proper cider yeast (about a quid a sachet) rather than bakers yeast.
