Fiery ginger syrup and a splash of soda replace ginger beer in this devilish rendition of El Diablo.

Acknowledging that I should have throttled back on the syrup given that I was without soda and trying to make this uncrushed ice, still very sweet. I definitely liked how the flavors play together and I will try it again both with soda and with less syrup.
