Wet Bar Wednesday – Jameson & Ginger

From a small pool hall in Las Vegas, I was introduced to a Jameson and ginger.  This is basically a mixture of Jameson (or any other whiskey, frankly) and ginger beer.  Ginger beer is non-alcoholic, and has a nice bite to it (think about liquid ginger – sweet but with a spicy kick).  Irish whiskey is just whiskey that is distilled in Ireland.

 I’d guess that the basic mixture is:

 

• 1 part Jameson’s Irish Whiskey (or any other whiskey you prefer)
• 2 – 3 parts ginger beer

Pour over ice and stir.  It’s tasty, and mild, a little sweet and not too much of a bite.  Enjoy!
