4 Ways To Make The Perfect Ginger Vodka Cocktails
You know whenever we think of ginger, we almost never think of ginger cocktails. It goes well with a ‘kadak masala chai’ or ‘ghar ki bani hui sabzi.’
‘Par cocktails? Hmmm.’
But if you really think about it, this combination can actually be the most delish one! The rich gingery flavour mixed with the sweetness of Smirnoff brings out sweet & spicy notes of the cocktail.
So, if that doesn’t tingle your taste buds already. I don’t know what will!
