If it isn’t a new drink, help me too.
Ingredients are:
Vodka : shot glass worth or more to liking. Pomegranant juice: a third. Ginger ale: two thirds
(ice, optional)
I’ve been thinking of adding some hot element into it ( as I cannot find the Hot ginger ale’s that have been mentioned in Ginger Ale or Ginger Beer threads of past.) so any suggestions on a dash of cayenne pepper or hot sauce would be appreciated.
Names, por favor.
My friends son suggested Backwash but this is too dignified to be called that.
That’s basically a Pomegranate Moscow Mule. A version with grenadine instead of straight pom juice (and, like yours, without the lime) is known to some as Gilligan’s Revenge.
What about something acknowledging it’s mythological roots?
Demeter’s Regret
Hades Trick
6 months in Hell (good if you add the hot sauce)
Orion’s Bride
Yeah - Absolut Peppar usually just used for Bloody Marys, but could work here if you want to give it a shot. When I moved, I had a stock-the-bar party. Someone left me a bottle of Absolut New Orleans. It’s the best tasting infused vodka I’ve ever had. It’s mango and black pepper. It’s also completely unavailable, since it was limited edition. I wish I still had some…
And indeed, it’s not strictly the same as either of those, though it does occur to me that adding the ginger slices would be one way to boost the bite.
