We loved it! New summer favorite drink! We ended up finding Ginger Beer at Total Wine & more, Fry's didn't have it. Don't try and substitute it with ginger ale; ginger ale and ginger beer are separate things. Read More

So refreshing! I used Jamaican ginger beer and domestic vodka instead of Russian, so what would you call that? I also threw a sprig of mint in there just for looks. Because presentation is everything. Thanks for the recipe! Read More

I searched high and low for the perfect copper mug. So it only makes sense I would search for the perfect Moscow Mule recipe! I used Goslings Ginger Beer and vodka we got from a distillery we visited in Virginia this past summer. Fresh-squeezed lime juice is the only way to go. Yummy! So cool and refreshing on a hot summer day! Read More

My new favorite drink that I first had on a cruise a few months back. So refreshing. Made this exactly as written with a slice of candied ginger on the glass. Yum. Read More

Make sure you use ginger beer, not ginger ale! A great summer drink, but also nice when you have a cold as the ginger is good on the throat. Read More
