Notes
This recipe can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to 2 days. For a stronger ginger flavor, leave the grated ginger in the mixture longer before straining. To make a non-alcoholic version, simply skip the vodka. The cocktail can be sweetened with sugar or a sugar substitute instead of honey. For a fizzy twist, add a splash of ginger ale or sparkling water before serving.
