Ginger in Fashion

The Ginger in Fashion cocktail is a delightful twist on the classic Old Fashioned, infused with the spicy warmth of fresh ginger. At its core, the drink features bourbon whiskey, known for its rich, caramel notes and smooth finish, which pairs beautifully with the heat and zest of ginger. A teaspoon of bar sugar adds a touch of sweetness to balance the bold flavors, while a dash of Fee Brothers Old Fashioned Bitters introduces a complexity of herbal and spicy undertones, enhancing the overall depth of the cocktail.

The cocktail's name, Ginger in Fashion, pays homage to its roots in the Old Fashioned tradition, one of the oldest known cocktails. While the exact origins of this ginger-infused variation are less documented, it reflects a modern trend of reinventing classic cocktails by incorporating fresh, contemporary ingredients like ginger. This approach not only nods to historical mixology but also caters to contemporary palates that appreciate a fusion of tradition and innovation in their drinking experiences. Whether enjoyed as a nightcap or a special occasion sipper, the Ginger in Fashion is sure to impress with its bold, balanced flavors.

This cocktail is alcoholic, so drink responsibly! Best served in a Rocks or Old-Fashioned Glass, though any glass works!

Feel free to get creative with substitutions — try different fruit types, sugar substitutes, or liquor brands. Crafting cocktails should be fun!
