Ingredients

1 1/2 ounces vodka

Lime wedge

Ginger Ice Cubes (see Cook's Note)

3 ounces ginger beer

Directions

Special equipment:
a copper mug
  1. Put the vodka in a copper mug. Squeeze the lime over the vodka. Add some Ginger Ice Cubes and top with the ginger beer.

Cook’s Note

To make Ginger Ice Cubes, slice fresh ginger into 1/8-inch thick coins. Use a zester to make long strips of lime zest and curl them into swirls. Add a piece of ginger and zest to each compartment of an ice cube tray, fill with distilled water and freeze overnight.

This is a pretty generic recipe. We make a concentrated ginger syrup (sometimes ginger-lime) and then use less ginger beer (too sweet). It’s more gingery/spicy and less carbonated. If you want to add flavored ice cubes, I’d suggest just ginger beer or ginger ale ones; seems like distilled water ice would dilute the drink.
