Review:

Imagine a ginger flavoured shandy with a kick – pretty much describes this gin laced lemon and ginger flavoured beer-tail.

History:

Adapted from a drink created in 2012 by Pete Jeary (aka Shaky Pete) at Hawksmoor, Seven Dials, London, England. Pete’s original recipe calls for homemade ginger syrup made by blending 1 kg ginger (peeled and chopped), 1 kg caster sugar and 500ml water fine strained into bottles. Pete uses London Pride beer.
