Celebrate St. Patrick's Day with 2 Gingers

St. Patrick’s Day is almost here and regardless of whether or not you’re actually Irish, we all get to pretend we are and drink whiskey with enthusiasm in honor of the holiday (at least those are my plans anyways). Raise a glass (or two) in honor of St. Patrick’s Day with 2 GINGERS, a fine, whiskey whose roots originate in Minnesota.

You can’t go wrong with a classic whiskey and ginger ale combo.

BIG GINGER®

  • 2 parts 2 GINGERS® WHISKEY
  • Ginger Ale
  • Lemon Wedge
  • Lime Wedge

Pour the 2 GINGERS® WHISKEY into a pint glass with ice. Top with ginger ale, followed by wedges of lemon and lime.

Lighten the calories; use diet Ginger Ale.

SKINNY GINGER®
