I want to do an experiement in a fifth grade class, and I know there is a 
way to use red cabbage juice so that it changes color when you blow on it 
through a straw because of CO2. I just want to know how you go about 
making the red cabbage juice, is it just the red cabbage and water? Please 
help!
