When my dad was a boy, he knew what a soft drink was: Grape Soda, Coca-Cola, Dr. Pepper. They were sweet, they were cold, and they were satisfying. His grandfather used to break out, from time to time, Buffalo Rock Ginger Ales and my father was quite certain that if Dr. Pepper was a soft drink, this was a Hard Drink. My dad's memory of this ginger ale was that it had a bit of a KICK,
Well, my father has found his Ginger Ale with a kick again, and he has certainly turned it into a Hard Drink in honor of his grandfather.
1.Red Rock Ginger Ale (with crushed Red Pepper for Kick!)
2.Evan Williams Honey Reserve
3.Ice
It's not too far off from the traditional Seven Year Itch, but the kick of the Red Pepper combined with the smooth sweetness of the Honey Reserve Bourbon is really satisfying.
