Stormy Weather

Whatever life brings us, even through Stormy Weather, our true friends will help us through.

To help us through the long weekend and celebrate, let me introduce you to a great cocktail full of spice and rich aromas.

Make use of that leftover wine, in this case Shiraz, combine it with rich aged rum, a splash of lime, and top with fizz and ginger spice. Cheers!

Ingredients:

1.5oz Brugal Anejo rum
0.5oz lime juice
0.25oz simple syrup
1.5oz Shiraz red wine
Ginger beer
Half lime wheel for garnish

Method:

In a mixing glass filled with ice, pour lime juice, simple syrup, Shiraz and Brugal Anejo rum. Cap with a shaker tin, shake, and pour into a glass. Top off with more ice and then add ginger beer until the glass is full. Garnish with a half lime wheel on the rim.

Tips:

This recipe works great when you have leftover wine. It can easily be prepared in a punch bowl when serving a large group.
