Lemon Ginger Vodka Cocktail. This drink is cold, bubbly and refreshing, with hints of lemon and bites of ginger. This cocktail hits the spot on those hot summer days. Whats the secret?… “drinking vinegar… [social_share/] Yum
Hi everyone! Feels like its been so long since my last post, first it was popsicle week, then the 4th of July and then…the stomach flu for 6 entire days. I am starting to come back to life but todays post is going to be short and sweet (lemony and gingery actually) because I still don’t have a lot of energy or much of an appetite to be honest. 
Before I was knocked out of commission I had started working on this Lemon Ginger Cocktail. I can’t take the credit for this recipe though. I was checking out the pretty bottles in the liquor isle over the 4th of July at the grocery store when a small black labeled bottle caught my eye. It was McClary Bros. Lemon Ginger Drinking Vinegar . I liked the old fashioned bottle plus curiosity got the best of me and its made right here in Michigan so into the cart it went. I had only planned to sip it here and there but then noticed a cocktail recipe on the back, the same one I am bringing to you today. 
The drink calls for ginger beer, which I am a huge fan of, vodka, McClary Bros. Lemon Ginger Drinking Vinegar and ice. Mix together and voila! You do taste the vinegar, it’s slight and blends into all the flavors beautifully. With hints of lemon, bites of ginger and the smoothness of vodka this drink is a thirst quencher. This has become my “go to” cocktail this summer! Enjoy! Stacey
