- 4 oz ginger beer

- Fresh passionfruit seeds
- Candied ginger piece
Instructions
- Fill your copper mug or glass with ice cubes.
- Pour the vodka into the mug.

Notes
This cocktail can be easily adjusted to suit your taste. If you prefer a sweeter drink, add more passionfruit syrup or a splash of simple syrup.
For a stronger ginger kick, choose a spicier ginger beer.
For a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the vodka and add more passionfruit and ginger beer. This makes a refreshing "mocktail" that everyone can enjoy.
You can prep the lime juice and passionfruit mixture ahead of time, but add the ginger beer just before serving to maintain its carbonation.
