Caipirinha with ginger ale! Blasphema!

If Caipirinha is like dark rum, then it would go well with ginger beer. (Homer moment - Dark and Stormy mm mm mm ), but ginger ale is the devils claw and will ruin anything it touches.

Re: Holiday Gluttony (none / 0)

I buy my Jamaican Ginger Beer from the same place I get my PG tips. I never mix it with anything. It is perfect as it is.

Re: Holiday Gluttony (none / 1)

Ginger is very good for you. Theoretically, if you get blotto on Caiprinhas or whatever they are, along with ginger ale, you should not be throwing up along with your hangover. :)

I'll put ginger ale in almost anything, probably.

Come, my friends, 'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
