Since there’s really no better accessory than a cocktail in your hand, each week brings you a tasty adult beverage from one of our favorite drinking establishments, complete with recipe.
This week: The Spiced Rum & Ginger Ale at Tuck Shop.
The Phoenix spot’s no-ego approach to comfort food and drink is obvious, especially on a Wednesday when there’s an all night drink special offering $3 selected cocktails, $2 cans of Kiltlifters, and $5 glasses of wine.
Did someone say $3 cocktail? Oh, yes and we aren’t talking low grade liquor and Canada Dry here. Tuck hand crafts their own ginger ale and tonic water to create specialty cocktails that give a head nod to 1920 and ’30 classics.
Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $15,500 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
The Spiced Rum and Ginger Ale uses Crusoe Organic Spiced Rum , which gives off notes of cinnamon, vanilla and nutmeg.
(recipe after the jump.)
Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz Crusoe Organic Spiced Rum
3 oz hand crafted Ginger Ale
(Ginger ale recipe consists of agave nectar, lemon zest, lemon juice and a tad bit of cinnamon)
In a rocks glass combine ice, spiced rum and ginger ale. Garnish glass with a lime. Sip to lose your ego and feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
