Ingredients
for 1 serving
Ginger Sugar
- 1 fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 cup sugar (200 g)
Cocktail
- 1 lime wheel
- ice
- 3 oz red blend wine (120 mL)
- 3 oz extra-strong ginger beer (120 mL)
Preparation
- Make the ginger sugar: Add the ginger to a food processor. Process for about 30 seconds, until finely chopped. Add the sugar and process for about 1 minute, until the ginger and sugar are fully incorporated into a damp mixture.
- Pour the sugar mixture onto a rimmed baking sheet and spread it evenly. Allow to air dry for 1–2 hours, until hard. Use clean hands to stir and crumble into a fine sugar, then pour into a jar. Store at room temperature for up to 2 months. Use with other cocktails, or sprinkle over cookies or fresh berries.
- Make the cocktail: Run the lime wheel around the rim of a Collins glass. Pour a little ginger sugar onto a small plate and dip the rim in the sugar to coat. Fill the glass with ice.
- Add the red wine to the glass, then slowly pour in the ginger beer (be careful of the fizz!). Use a chopstick or a bar spoon to stir briefly. Slide in the lime wheel and serve.
- Enjoy!
