Feeling under the weather? A little whiskey, ginger, honey, and lemon should do the trick.
This is not the traditional Penicillin drink. We like to add a splash of ginger beer, because we can’t get enough of the stuff!
Did you notice that no fancy cocktail shaker is needed? While we love a beautiful bartending setup, we think all people should know that a quality drink can be made in any container with a lid. Cheers!
