Method
Cocktail
- 1
Prepare glass and ice
Place the collins/highball glass in the freezer for 5 minutes or fill it with ice to chill. If using fresh ice, fill the glass about three-quarters full with cubed ice (approximately 1 cup).
- 2
Build the drink
Measure and pour 0.5 oz fresh lime juice into the chilled glass, then add 0.5 oz ginger liqueur (or ginger syrup). Add 2 oz dry hard cider on top of those ingredients.
- 3
Top with 6 oz ginger cider (or ginger beer-cider hybrid). Pour slowly to preserve carbonation and create a gentle layering effect.
- 4
Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters over the top if using; this adds aromatic depth and balances sweetness.
- 5
Mix gently
Use a bar spoon to gently stir the drink 4–6 times, just enough to combine the liquids without knocking out too much fizz.
Garnish & Serve
- 6
Garnish the rim or top with a lime wheel and spear a piece of candied ginger onto a cocktail pick. Optionally tuck a mint sprig beside the lime for aroma.
- 7
Serve immediately while effervescent. Recommend pairing with light appetizers or enjoying on a warm afternoon.
Tools
- 8
Use the jigger to measure spirits/juice precisely and the bar spoon to stir gently. Rinse and dry tools after use.
