The health benefits of ginger have been cherished by humankind for eons for good reason. Take a shot of ginger, and your immune system will take care of the rest. Power up a can of Visitor with this refreshing, spicy ginger beer riff.
Cocktail jigger OR something that can measure liquid by 1/2 oz
Masticating juicer (Optional)
Visitor
Ginger juice
Simple syrup
Fresh lemon juice
Optional Variations:
Cayenne pepper
Angostura bitters
Fill a glass of your choosing with ice, crack a can of Visitor, and fill the glass ¾ full. Add the following to the glass:
1 shot of fresh ginger juice– the spicier the better (you can use a packaged ginger or ginger-turmeric shot, if you don’t have time to bust out your masticating juicer)
.5 oz fresh lemon juice (you may substitute for lime)
.5 oz simple syrup (a fresh pressed cane syrup like Petite Canne provides the best depth of flavor, but any sweetener of your choice will do the trick)
Stir and enjoy. Try it with cayenne pepper or Angostura bitters for variation.
