Ginger Martinis and Other Great Ginger Cocktails

Wednesday November 5, 2008
Ginger is simply a delightful cocktail flavor and there are a few ways to get it. Once is to use ginger itself, which can be used as fresh pieces or grated, or there is the option of candied, preserved, or crystallized. For something a little simpler, a ginger syrup like Monin's is readily available. Yet another option is a ginger liqueur like the delicious Canton or Modern Spirit's Candied Ginger Vodka. And, for something a little more specialized there's the seasonal Hiram Walker Gingerbread liqueur.
