Instructions

Inventor: stitchedmonkey Origin: Costa Rica I named this drink "Monday at Midnight" because Tuesdays and Wednesdays are my days off from work and I improvised this drink for my wife on Monday night to sort of "inaugurate" our weekend, if you will. Vigorously shake the first three ingredients with ice in a cocktail shaker until Water condenses on the outside of the shaker. Strain onto a Collins glass full of ice. Fill the glass with Ginger Ale. Decorate with the Lime slice.
