A woman inside the house told police the equipment was for brewing non-alcoholic ginger beer. Which is totally true, if by “beer” you mean “speed”, and by “ginger” you mean “high-grade”. It is, however, still totally 100% non-alcoholic.

When the cops asked for a glass to quench their thirst, she explained that this was a special kind of ginger beer, and fetched them a strap and a syringe. / this was a special kind of ginger beer that you can only drink by snorting.
Ironically, she swaps the ginger beer for drugs. / she sells the ginger beer and uses the money to buy drugs.

The woman was furious. She’s addicted to the stuff. / She needs six capfuls a day.

It was only ginger beer, though admittedly in commercial quantities.
The ginger beer was completely non-alcoholic, and only a little bit hallucinogenic. / narcotic. / opiate. / addictive.
