Ginger Beer and Ginger Ale Cocktail Recipes

Ginger ale and ginger beer add a refreshing spice to mixed drinks

Ginger ale, and its spicier, fermented cousin ginger beer, are ideal cocktail mixers. The effervescence lightens up a summery highball, while the ginger's bite tames spirits. We've rounded up our favorite ginger ale and ginger beer cocktail recipes.

Ginger ale and ginger beer can both be purchased, but it's fun and easy to make them on your own. For ginger ale, simply make a syrup out of water, ginger, sugar, and a dash of black peppercorns, then mix it with soda water. To make ginger beer, brew up a similar ginger mixture and add in spices and champagne yeast. Strain the mixture, bottle it, and after a day of fermentation you have your very own ginger beer!

Whether you make or buy, you've got delicious recipes to try. The Moscow Mule is a classic mix of ginger beer and vodka. If you steep the vodka with lemongrass and grapefruit to make aquavit then you have a variation called a Swedish Mule, while swapping the vodka out for gin and adding a little mint makes a Gin-Gin Mule.

The Dark 'N Stormy is another classic ginger beer cocktail, with black rum and ginger beer swirling together like storm clouds. The Black and Stormy is a variation that kicks up the spice with ginger liqueur.

For a summertime drink for your next cookout, mix together a pitcher of our Strawberry Pimm's Cup with ginger ale and kaffir lime leaves.

Check out all of our favorite ginger ale and ginger beer cocktail recipes, plus recipes for homemade ginger beer and ginger syrup!

Any of these cocktails can be made with store-bought ginger beer. But if you want to go the extra mile, you can brew your own from scratch.

Not quite up to brewing your own ginger beer? An easier option is to make your own ginger ale by cooking up a batch of this ginger syrup and mixing it with soda water.

Inspired by our list of Friday cocktails, bartender Michael Neff noticed that bitter flavors were prominent, as were fizzy drinks made with fresh fruit and herbs. To that end, he created a modified Pimm's Cup, using Cynar to add a bit more bitter tang and ginger beer for spice. Fresh fruit and herbs round out the (almost) traditional summer refresher.

By trademark, this Bermudan combination of rum and ginger beer requires Gosling's Black Seal Rum; similar drinks with names like dark 'n foggy or light 'n stormy use other rums.

A refreshing marriage between a Tom Collins and a Dark n' Stormy, this lime and ginger beer-spiked gin cocktail has an intriguing herbal undertone thanks to Amaro Abano, a zesty Italian digestif with notes of bitter orange, cardamom, and white pepper.

This vodka-and–ginger beer libation is traditionally served in a copper mug.

In this Moscow Mule variation, vodka is infused with lemongrass and grapefruit to make aquavit.

This Moscow Mule variation is made with gin and mint.

Black-currant-flavored crème de cassis adds fruity dimension and a lovely pink hue to this ginger beer and tequila cocktail from the 1940s.

This variation on the El Diablo swaps crème de cassis for black currant jam and earthy honey.

Martin Cate of Smuggler's Cove in San Francisco combines Chartreuse and ginger ale in this refreshing tropical drink.

Spiced rum and fiery ginger beer combine with tart cranberry juice in this flavorful cool-weather cocktail.

This sweet-tart wine punch was invented by members of the Junior League of Houston book club in the 1970s.

This chilled cider punch combines the fall flavors of a mulled cider with the celebratory feel of a sparkling punch.

Vodka, ginger beer, and muddled pear make for a tart and refreshing cocktail perfect for sipping on a cool fall evening.

This version of a classic tiki drink mixes two kinds of rum with a variety of fruit juices and syrups.

A twist on the British classic, this summer cooler takes on spicy, herbal notes from Kaffir lime leaves, while strawberries lend sweet balance to the pleasingly bitter liqueur. Get the recipe for Strawberry Pimm's Cup »

A mix of Campari, Pimm's No. 1, and ginger beer, this drink makes an excellent warm weather apéritif.

This recipe for a modified Dark and Stormy uses fresh ginger juice for a kick of refreshing heat.

This twist on a mojito combines pineapple- and coconut-infused rum with fresh pineapple and mint for a fruity, vacation-inspired drink.

This bubbly cocktail features champagne, ginger beer, rhubarb, cardamom, and just a hint of vanilla.

"Bucks" are a family of drinks that consist of ginger beer plus a spirit and citrus—a category that includes this fruity refresher as well as the classic Moscow Mule. Get the recipe for Kentucky Buck »

This simple highball mixes cognac with ginger beer and a spiral peel of a whole lemon.

12 Ginger Beer Cocktails You Never Thought to Try (And Some You Have)

The ginger and apple cooler will be a hit at your next cocktail party.

We're approaching the cold and flu season, which means it's time to eat more ginger. And what better way to get your daily dose than by imbibing delicious alcoholic beverages? Two birds with one stone, no?

2 oz. fresh lime juice

Lime wedge, for serving

Mint, for serving

4 sprigs cilantro

1.5 Elijah Craig Small Batch Bourbon

1 1/4 oz. fresh carrot juice

1 oz. fresh orange juice

1/2 oz. fresh lime juice

3/4 oz. Homemade Red Bell Pepper, Ginger & Chili Syrup

Garnish with Cajun seasoning, crushed mixed peppercorns and course sea salt, with a hint of lime zest—mixed together to create a fine powder. Cajun and butter baby corn. Lime wheel, fresh ginger & red pepper (last one optional).

Recipe from Rebecca Sturt, Owner & Head Trainer at Pineapple Bar Consultancy in Dubai, United Arab Emirates

2 tbsp. Calvados

1 tsp. maple syrup

1 tsp. lemon juice

Wheat or ginger beer, for serving

Candied ginger, for serving

2 oz. apple cider

4 oz. ginger beer

1 lime, cut in half

4 oz. Castello Del Poggio Sweet Red

1/2 oz. Elderflower Liqueur

1/2 oz. lemon juice

Top with 2 oz. ginger beer

Recipe Tenzin Samdo, Beverage Director at Tavern Road

2 parts Absolut Elyx

2 parts Cloudy Apple Juice

1/2 part freshly squeezed lime juice

2 dash Angostura Bitters

Top with ginger beer

1.5 oz. silver tequila

1/2 tsp. fresh lime zest

1 oz. fresh lime juice

1 oz. fresh orange juice

Simple syrup, optional

3 oz. ginger beer, cold

Lime wedge, for garnish

*Simple syrup: To make simple syrup, bring equal parts sugar and water to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Cool and chill.

1 oz. limoncello

Fever Tree Ginger Beer

Recipe from Cynthia Tran, Beverage Director at Tratto, San Francisco, California

3/4 oz. fresh lemon juice

1 large egg white

2 oz. gin, preferably Plymouth

1/2 oz. crème de cacao

1.5 oz. chilled heavy cream

1.5 oz chilled ginger beer

1 orange twist, for garnish

1 750 ml bottle of white wine

3 cups apple cider

3/4 cup light rum (clear rum)

3-4 medium apples (colorful combos look and taste great together)

3 2-inch orange peels

4 3-inch cinnamon sticks

2 tsp. whole cloves

1 tsp. whole allspice

2 12-oz. bottles of ginger beer or ginger ale

If desired, remove fruit and pour mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to strain out the spices and orange peel. Discard spices and orange peel and return liquid and apples to the pitcher. Personally, I like having the cloves and allspice bob around in each glass, so I don’t strain, but you do have to be careful to dodge the whole spices when drinking it.

Pour liquid into glasses about halfway. Add apple slices until glass is about 3/4 full. Top off with ginger beer. Serve with a straw.

2 oz. blood orange juice

Juice from 1 wedge of lime

3 oz. ginger beer

1/4 cup blood orange juice

zest from one blood orange

1/4 cup granulated sugar

Slices of blood orange for garnish (optional)

Dip the rim of a glass into juice first and then into the sugar mixture to coat the rim evenly. Fill the glass with ice.

In a cocktail shaker, combine 1 cup of ice with 2 ounces blood orange juice, 1.5 ounces tequila, and the juice from a lime wedge. Shake vigorously. Pour into the prepared glass and top off with desired amount of ginger beer.

15 Cocktails Using Ginger Beer, Summer's Coolest Mixer

Whether you're on the beach or raising a glass after work, these recipes will liven up your summer nights.

We all know (and love) the Moscow Mule, but it's time to get more creative with this season's trendy brew. With fruity flavors and vibrant colors, these ginger beer drinks are the perfect toast to summer. Cheers!

Don't forget to pin these ginger beer recipes for your next party and follow Redbook on Pinterest for more inspiration!

Put your big girl pants on for this twist on a Moscow Mule, which mixes cranberry juice and and citrus flavors for a tart sip that will taste so refreshing all summer long.

If you reserve bourbon for cold winter nights, this cocktail might make you break it out for the summer time — lemon juice makes the bourbon a little less potent, and ginger beer and club soda add an effervescence that's just right for how summer days.

A twist on the classic Paloma cocktail, these drinks call for ginger beer instead of club soda — and that little bit of ginger flavor makes all the difference.

Margaritas are great, and regular ol' beeritas are nice, too. But swap in ginger beer for regular brews and you'll get a fresh cocktail with just a little bit of bite. Yum.

It's probably a cocktail first for you (it certainly was for us), but add apple butter to this beer-and-bourbon drink. It adds a caramelized spike you won't soon forget.

Don't reserve this refreshing sip for the Kentucky Derby, especially when it only requires three ingredients — and about two minutes — to make. The ginger beer gives this classic drink a bubbly twist.

Planning a party? Try this sparkling take on a summer sangria that you can make by the pitcher.

Summer is prime strawberry time, so we would be remiss to not include a cocktail that makes good use of the tasty berries and adds sweetness to the ginger beer-cocktail favorite.

This gorgeous drink capitalizes on the fresh blackberries in season this summer, and with the option to use vodka, gin, or rum, the possibilities are endless. Might we suggest a different liquor for each batch?

Raise a glass to summer with this sunshine-colored cocktail.

1/8 oz vanilla bean bitters

1/8 oz herbisaint

1.5 oz lemon juice

2oz Ginger Beer

2 oz Veglio Michelino e Figlio Moscato d'Asti

Add everything other than Moscato d'Asti in Boston shaker and shake. Strain over new ice and top with Moscato d'Asti.

This delicious drink creatively combines ginger beer with apple cider and vodka. Top it with a cinnamon stick to cap off a cool summer evening, or easily transition into fall.

Step up your wine game by mixing it with vermouth and ginger beer. The triple-threat combo adds drama to a sparkling prosecco.

2 oz VOGA Prosecco

1 oz Pomegranate Juice

½ oz Sweet Vermouth

2 oz Ginger Beer

Fill glass with ice and then add the VOGA Prosecco, Pomegranate Juice, Sweet Vermouth and Ginger Beer. Add in a few cherries and mix well. Top with a single cherry and enjoy.

With grapefruit in peak season, why not try this exciting twist on the standard mule? We won't even blame you for skipping the copper mug.

The Brazilian cachaça lends itself to a bright and zesty beverage that just looks like a splash of summer.

2 oz Cachaça 51

.5 oz lime juice

.5 oz simple syrup

.75 oz carrot juice

Pour Cachaça 51, juice and syrup into shaker. Add ice, shake and strain into a collins glass with fresh ice. Top with ginger beer. Garnish with a candied ginger.

Ginger beer is an unexpected — but delicious — addition to this Cuban cocktail.

5-Ingredient Ginger Beer Margaritas

Friends, I have been eagerly awaiting the day that I could share this recipe with you.

It is hands down the recipe I am most excited about this month! No, really! Even more than all the desserts (even the cheesecakes) I’ve shared, I am absolutely smitten with this drink! You simply must make it. Promise me this.

This drink is simple – as always – with flavors that were seemingly meant for each other: Ginger beer, simple syrup, fresh lime juice, tequila, and salt for your rim (a must).

When it comes to your tequila, go for something quality. As in, not Jose Cuervo Gold, which I was recently informed is not really tequila (I’ve been lied to all these years and it hurts.) We went with a brand called Altos (no affiliation or partnership, just pure adoration) and we love it.

Just remember, the key to picking a good tequila is: Make sure it’s made with 100% agave. Then you’ll know it’s higher quality and made with the good stuff. This will ultimately affect the quality of your drinks.

This recipe is so easy to make. Just lime your rim with lime juice and salt and then add all of your ingredients with ice to a large glass or cocktail shaker and stir (as to not erupt your ginger beer – lesson learned). Then pour over more ice, garnish with lime, and stir.

What does it taste like? Seriously the best margarita I’ve ever had. And I’ve had a lot of margaritas! (Don’t worry mom, I’m not a drunk – I swear. I just like ritas.)

Tangy from the lime

Crisp from the ginger

John and I both loved that they showcase the tequila well and don’t overpower it. And they go perfect with any and all Mexican dishes, which is great because we eat some form of tacos at least twice a week. Hello fajitaville and nacho soup.

Simply put: Make these margaritas.

You will love them – I have no doubt. Unless, that is, you don’t like ginger beer. And if that’s the case, GET OFF MY INTERNETZ. (Kidding but not kidding, ok kidding, but really? Who are you?) Cheers!

• 1 1/2 ounces (3 Tbsps) 100% agave tequila (such as Altos)
• 1 ounce (2 Tbsp) fresh lime juice
• 3 ounces (6 Tbsp) ginger beer
• 1/2 ounce (1 Tbsp) simple syrup
• optional: Coarse salt for lining rim

1. Line a small serving glass with fresh lime juice and dip in coarse salt (optional).
2. Add tequila, simple syrup, ginger beer and lime juice to a large glass or cocktail shaker with 1/2 cup ice and stir vigorously. Don't shake with a lid on or it will erupt from the ginger beer carbonation (lesson learned).
3. Pour liquid (reserving ice) into serving glass with a few ice cubes (we just ordered this oversized ice cube mold and LOVE it). Garnish with a lime wedge and serve immediately. Repeat for more drinks, or double/triple the amounts for more people.

Hi, I'm Dana! I am a food stylist, photographer, creator of the Food Photography School, and author of the 31 Meals Cookbook and Everyday Cooking.

Talk About It

Oh hello! I love me a margarita and this sounds like an excellent take on the classic.

Interesting! I love a good margarita and I think it’d be fabulous with ginger beer. Gotta try this!

Katrina @ Warm Vanilla Sugar says

I love ginger beer, but would have never thought to make it into a marg!! So cool!

Dana! These are gorgeous, and the flavors sound like perfection. I always find straight-ahead ritas to be a little too strong – I usually add a bit of fizzy water, but ginger beer?! Be still my heart. I also don’t care for orange liqueur in ritas, so these look perfect for me. Also, aren’t Fentiman’s sodas the best? I could live on their rose lemonade.

Dana Shultz says

I love everything you just said. Rose lemonade? HUBBA. I wish you lived closer so I could sit at your feet all day and absorb your glorious cooking/food knowledge.

Wow, thanks! The feeling is mutual!

I just waanted to recommend the FEVER TREE Ginger Beer – tried them all but feel like this one really adds to the complexity of these margaritas!! My friend made me ginger ritas recently and I cannot stop obsessing over them because they are amazing! She used Fever Tree….

Fever Tree is my favorite ginger beer for this recipe, too. The drink has turned out great regardless of the type of ginger beer but I agree that it is even better with the above brand (for whatever reason)! LOVE this recipe.

I’m so glad someone else feels this way! Fever Tree is really the only way to go. Unfortunately, I’m having the darndest time finding it since moving to the East Coast. Even when I do find a rare store that carries their brand, they don’t have the ginger beer, only the tonic. After many disappointments I have found Maine Root to be the most acceptable substitute for Fever Tree. It’s the only one I’ve found to have an equally good gingery bite. Unfortunately, it has twice the sugar as Fever Tree. So, I omit the simple syrup and find it works well with this recipe. Thanks for a great recipe!

Sarah, Not sure where you are on the East Coast, but Safeway grocery stores and some Walmart stores carry Fever Tree brand, though I recall the ginger beer being out of stock when I looked in Walmart. Maine Root is a different, but addictive new friend. I enjoy the bite and find it much less sweet than D&G, the original Jamaican ginger beer.

Sara @ Cake Over Steak says

AAAH! I will love you forever based on this recipe alone. Ginger beer cocktails and margaritas are my two favorite things, so the fact that you combined them is blowing my mind. Why didn’t I think of this before?! I am going to make these so hard tonight.

Dana Shultz says

“I am going to make these so hard tonight.” Ha! This made my day. Enjoy, Sara!

Whitney @ To Live & Diet in L.A. says

Yum! These look amazing!!

I made Moscow Mules recently and loved them but I also enjoy tequila occasionally so these would be the perfect swap.

Tip for lightening them up: Use Zevia Ginger soda instead of Ginger beer. I made my moscows with both and seriously did not notice the difference.

Dana Shultz says

Thanks for the tip, Whitney! I’ve seen zevia ginger soda but have never tried it!

These are awesome! Would recommend the “Naturally Light” FEVER TREE Ginger Beer ! It is the best – the ginger flavor is very hot and it’s not too yeasty…

You have a brilliant mind. That is all.

Dana Shultz says

tammy, you flatter me. Hope you enjoy this cocktail!

Jessica (bakecetera) says

hello tequila time! my friend and i JUST made a version of these cocktails last night – you’re spot on: good tequila is a very wise investment.

Goretti Tada says

This looks delicious and I’m not even an alcohol drinker. I do have a question, why is Jose Cuervo gold not a tequila?

Dana Shultz says

It is technically tequila but brands (such as Jose Cuervo) don’t use 100% agave in their products, which means there are some fillers in there that make them less authentic. The main tip I learned recently is to make sure the tequila you choose is 100% agave. Hope that helps!

Could you tell me what simple syrup is please can we get it in the U. K?

Dana Shultz says

It’s just 1 part water mixed with 1 part boiling water until dissolved! Then cool and use.

Hi Dana, I noticed you ALREADY started the cocktail hour. Perhaps you should include some “sugar” in the simple syrup recipe! I have been up all night and you brought me my first smile of the day. I, too, am off to buy tequila and ginger beer. Thanks to all for the inspiration!

Denisse @ Le Petit Chef says

These look so refreshing, I wish I had one in my hand right now!

Kim of Mo'Betta says

I love you for this. Like seriously. L-O-V-E!! Ginger beer is one of my favorite things and this sounds fabulous!

tara white says

I love margaritas – especially simple ones with natural ingredients and yes, real tequila! I have also never tried ginger beer before, but these were too intriguing not to try. So I made them tonight and they might be my new favorite margarita! So good! The ginger beer adds such a kick to them, I love it! Thanks for this!

Ceara @ Ceara's Kitchen says

I need this and a beach right now!! This looks amazing! BTW, I made your black bean brownies this weekend and my boyfriend and I were blown away! THX :)

Dana Shultz says

So glad to hear it, Ceara! Thanks for sharing!

Sounds yummy – but what exactly is “simple” syrup?

Dana Shultz says

Good question! 1 part sugar to 1 part water. Bring it to a low simmer in a saucepan until well combined, then cool and bottle. That’s it!

Katie @ Produce on Parade says

Ooooooo I am a ginger beer FIEND! Seriously…this looks amazing, and I don’t even really drink!

This looks awesome. I think it’s interesting that you used Fentiman’s, though. Thw one and only time I tried that brand I couldn’t finish it because to me it tasted like straight up tequila, and ever since I’ve been thinking of using it in virgin margaritas.

Lori @ Foxes Love Lemons says

Ummm…..yum-town. My husband travels to Mexico for work frequently, and brings back good tequila faster than we can drink it! I’ll have to look for that brand of ginger beer, too. Lovely recipe!

Dana Shultz says

Tell me more about this “more tequila than you can drink” situation… ;D

Lori @ Foxes Love Lemons says

I know, right? WHY am I complaining? Haha.

I looooove ginger beer! And margaritas! My husband is making these for us tonight! LOVE!

so funny story…my friend jeremy weldon has mentioned that i should follow you a few times, but i always forget. he mentioned it again last night and i already had been on your blog looking at this recipe the same day. =) anyway, i thought i would say hi! looking forward to trying this recipe!

Dana Shultz says

Small world! You’ll have to tell him thanks for recommending us. So glad you stopped by. Let me know if you try this recipe. It’s to DIE for and has become one of my favorites!

These sound amazing!! Will definitely have to try soon. We have tacos and/or Mexican food at least twice a week at my house too… sometimes more!

Dana Shultz says

Do it! And be sure to let me know how you like them, Renae!

Yep! These were delicious! Thanks for sharing the recipe! Will definitely be making a bunch more of these once the warmer weather hits!!

Dana Shultz says

Hoorah! I know, I can’t wait ’til summer so I can down these like a boss. Cheers!

This little guy is helping me celebrate Cinco de Mayo! Thanks for the delish recipe!

Linked it in my What I Love Wednesday post for 5/7/14 :)

Dana Shultz says

Great! Thanks for the share, Sarah!

I have made these about 6 times since you posted the recipe and I won’t stop. These are so yum. Okay if I write about these on my blog with a link back to you?

Dana Shultz says

Absolutely! Thanks for the share!

Teri Hughes says

I just discovered ginger beer and I love margaritas, and this recipe is DELICIOUS! I love it!!

I’m really excited to try this flavor margarita. I’d have to say margaritas are my all time favorite drink. And I don’t think I have ever tried ginger beer before.

I am a ginger beer addict and a keen cocktail drinker. This sounds……PERFECT. So going to make this tonight. I’ve got some Jose Cuervo silver, says it’s made from Blue Agave, is that good enough?

Dana Shultz says

Should work! It’s not the “best quality,” as I’ve found. But still delicious!

Didn’t know what simple syrup was so I used half a tea spoon of sugar instead. Cut the sour of the lime perfectly.

Dana Shultz says

Lovely! Thanks Kyle. Simple syrup is just 1 part water to 1 part sugar, cooked on medium heat until well combined! Then just cool and use for cocktails. Hope that helps!

I was looking for something to do with ginger beer I had in the house. I like it, but my daughter loves it, so I had to stock up while she was home from college. Now that she is back at school, I was looking for a good cocktail recipie, and I am pleased to say, This is it! Perfection! Thank You. I never would have thought to make a margarita with ginger beer, but now, I wouldn’t make one without it.

Yummy. So glad I found your website, you have a new fan!

Thank you for this Cocktail. I have enjoyed a much abbreviated and simplified somewhat similar cocktail for years – Ginger Ale and Tequila.

Pint Glass filled with Ice

2 Shots Don Eduardo Anejo (something to balance with the Ginger Ale)

Schweppes Ginger Ale

Slice of Orange

tried this with Ginger Beer, but the ‘hoppiness’ and carbonation of the Beer is off-putting

of course there is a much simpler version

Chilled Quart Bottle of Mountain Dew – empty half or more

Fill remaining empty portion of bottle with imitation Tequila – Jose Ceurvo Gold

enjoy straight from the bottle.

by the way, this site is simply terrific.

This has become my husband and I’s favorite margarita recipe! We didn’t have the lime juice when we made them today so we added in some limoncello and it was just as yummy. Thanks for all the wonderful recipes!

Maggie @ Veg Fiend says

Yes, yes, and more yes. I have three bottles of ginger beer sitting in the house, and was trying to think of a fun cocktail to make with them. Maybe this and your panko avocado tacos?!

Dana Shultz says

Oh, great combo! Hope you love them, Maggie!

My wife is an extremely lightweight drinker. A single glass of wine is fine, two glasses and she needs assistance.

She absolutely loved these. Tempted as I was to put the pedal to the tequila metal, I stuck to your recipe and they were glorious.

At $1 a kilo for extremely fresh, ripe limes, I was looking for something to have as an aperitif before our chick-pea curry, and this just hit the spot.

It has gone into my drinks book and will definitely stay in our tropical repertoire.

(We also love Fentimans, but here in SE Asia, no chance. We have to make do with Schweppes or Bundaberg – but that’s no hardship).

Hi Dana — this recipe is just what I was looking for to spring on my book club next month. We’re actually a drinking club with a reading problem, and I’m going for a tacos and tequilas theme . Question: do you think pre-making these in a pitcher would work? I worry the ginger beer will lose its fizz and change the flavor of the entire drink.

Dana Shultz says

It will lose its fizz, but not if you make it just before! It doesn’t sit very well. Good luck!

Jeanie June says

I love Ginger Beer cocktails: Moscow Mule, Dark and Stormy, and top of the list is the Suffering Bastard (gin, bourbon, lime juice, ginger beer, bitters, it’s great, try it, honeslty, even if you don’t care for bourbon).

I also love Margaritas, so when I had a case of ginger beer, and Googled “ginger beer cocktails” this baby popped up, and I had to try it. I had never thought to put ginger beer in a Margarita.

I tried it as is, and I did like it, it was good! But I do like some Cointreau in my ‘rita, and I like to taste the tequila a little smidge more (if it’s a good tequila).

Now, my fiancé tells me I shouldn’t make up my own drinks/make them on the fly/doctor up a recipe, because I’m apparently, typically, terrible at it if I don’t strictly follow a recipe. But hey, he wasn’t home tonight! So, I did it anyways.

So I upped it to 2 oz of tequila, added 0.5 oz of Cointreau.

Whoops! TOO strong!

So I added 1 more oz of ginger beer to soften it just a tad, for a final of:

0.5 oz Cointreau

1 oz lime juice

4 oz ginger beer

And I must say, ginger beer in a ‘rita is seriously genius. GENIUS. Thank you, thank you. I love you. (don’t tell my fiancé)

I will definitely be trying this!! A Moscow Mule introduced me to ginger beer which I LOVE so I’m eager to see how it will be in a margarita which is my favorite drink.

As with most drinks I tried decreasing or eliminating the sweetener and topping with Cointreau! Wonderful.

Awsome! I’ve had ginger margaritas at restaurants but didn’t think to use the ginger beer I have for Moscow mules for margaritas at home. I also use Fever Tree.

Also I had some Hornitos Black Barrel (100% Agave, Anejo Tequila, aged in whiskey barrels) in my liquor cabinet and I have to tell you that hint of whiskey and ginger playing back up to lime and tequila… So good!

Thanks for the inspiration!

This sounds delicious! I just shared it on my blog for a post about National Margarita Day!

This is delicious! I too found this while googling. Couple things–your tequila is actually called Olmeca Altos, and it’s wonderful. One of the things high end tequilas use in their process is crushing the agave with a tahona, which is a giant, usually horse-drawn millstone. Clearly, this adds to the final cost. Half of the juice Olmeca Altos uses is treated this way, so you get the benefit of the artisanal method for less money. Also, ginger beer mixes beautifully with every kind of booze. Tequila, vodka, rum, gin, bourbon, pisco, all delicious. I’ve not yet tried cognac, but I bet it’s great too. My favorites are gin and rum, especially Jamaican rum like Appleton Estate or (be still my heart) Smith & Cross. Lime is classic, but lemon can be good too. Lightly muddled herbs make a nice addition too, I love mint and basil. Also, don’t be afraid to dash some bitters in there. Last week I mixed ginger beer with applejack, lemon juice, and hopped pear bitters, and it was like a totally different drink than anything I’ve ever made. I haven’t yet tried Fever Tree (though their tonic is my favorite) but my favorite ginger beers are Barritt’s and Reed’s. Reed’s also makes a raspberry ginger beer that’s hard to find but so worth hunting down. One last thing–home brewed fresh ginger beer is super easy if you have a juicer, and it’s really yummy.

Danielle A says

Any substitutions for the simple syrup? Totally not a fan of it, but definitely want to try this recipe. Thanks!!

Agave Nectar, maybe?

Jacob K. Thomas says

You use a little honey and hot water to make a simple syrup that way. It will be a lot of healthy then using regular sugar. Also maple syrup works too.

Jacob K. Thomas says

I love ginger beer and use it for a lot of my cocktails, was looking for something like this and it definitely didn’t let me down at all. Well balance and you get that nice bite from the ginger beer. I would also suggest that you could mix all of the other ingredients in, then top off with the ginger beer, then give it a little stir. You won’t lose some of the fizz of the ginger beer. Though either way, the drink is going be great. Excellent recipe!

Stephanie G. says

This recipe is delicious! I just tried it out because I was thinking of serving it at my cousin’s bridal shower this weekend. I’m a fan, and I’ll definitely be serving this at her party.

For my personal taste, I probably would not add simple syrup, as I think ginger beer is sweet enough. And I might do more tequila (don’t judge me!) and a little less ginger beer. If I’m using decent tequila, I really like to taste it. I also think the more lime, the better.

Thanks for this fantastic recipe! I love your site and have made a bunch of your recipes, and all have been very successful!

Delicious and easy. I was out of triple sec, had 2 pounds of limes and a pack of ginger beer so this was perfect for me. I will definitely make these more often and try a dash of bitters like another reviewer mentioned :). Thank you for sharing!

Apparently I am a little late to the party! :) Had some limes that were begging to be used…had some ginger beer…have the internet. Wow! This is a great late summer kind of drink. Thanks for sharing the original recipes and thanks to everyone else for sharing their tips! Prost!

Great to make a big batch and sit on the beach with friends! A fast and easy recipe that tastes delicious. A must try!

Irfan Haque says

All Tequila is made from Blue Agave as the rule. Anything made with just Agave is Mescal.

If a Moscow Mule and a Mexican cutie Margarita had a baby, this would be their darling! Enjoyed this concoction on the deck tonight as we were grilling our pizza. It is FANTASTIC! I did use a tad bit less lime, and subbed agave nectar for the simple syrup…Patron’s silver was the spirit of choice. I’ll be drinking this all summer. Thanks for a great cocktail “offspring”!

I had to have these as soon as I read the recipe ❤️ I used agave syrup instead of simple syrup … fever free ginger beer and patron . one wasn’t enough! Thx for the amazing recipe that I’m going to make to impress my friends 😁

OMG this is the best margarita I have ever had! I don’t like ’em too sweet and this is perfect. I used Tijuana Sweet Heat tequila and I am in heaven!

Top Five Beer Cocktails

Lagers, ales, and stouts add flavor and carbonation to mixed drinks. Below are five tasty tipples, in order of complexity.

Text by Camper English, photos by Heather Tyree

M any beer enthusiasts, like oenophiles and Scotch lovers, believe in the purity of their drink and don't welcome dilutions. Let them live in their gated communities. More open minds, and palates, recognize the simple pleasures of a Black and Tan (combining stout/porter and lager/ale) and a Snakebite (hard cider and lager). The whole is greater than the sum of its parts in each of these cases. The union of flavor begets a wholly original taste sensation. This has not been lost on better bartenders, who have been experimenting with beer in recent years. In addition to making the aforementioned classics, they're going to beer for effervescence, much like cocktails calling for a touch of Champagne or ginger ale. For this roundup, we chose to focus on beer-forward beverages that prove the stubborn purists wrong. The following drinks include some oldies-but-goodies, a few reinterpretations, and a couple of brand-new cocktails created by the nation's top mixologists. Hoppy days are here again.

Liquor-Free Cocktails like the Black Velvet

The most common beer "cocktails" contain no hard alcohol at all, they are simply equal parts of two types of beer or cider layered on top of each other in a pint glass. This includes a dark stout like Guinness with a light-colored ale in the Black and Tan, and lager beer and hard apple cider in the Snakebite. We'd also put the Black Velvet in this category, a mix of stout and Champagne best poured as follows: Fill glass halfway with bubbly, then pour stout over a spoon, slowly, to create a layered effect.

Fries and beer are an obvious (Belgian-inspired) pairing, but Champagne's bubbles work well with fatty foods too.

The meaty oils in this breakfast casserole beg for the richness (and carbonation) found in sweeter sparklers and beers.

Happy Mich

The Michelada is a refreshing cocktail, originally from Mexico, made with beer, lime juice, and hot sauce, served in a salt-rimmed glass over ice. Cocktail consultants The Tippling Brothers created several variations of the Michelada, including the Happy Mich, for Mercadito restaurants in New York. It retains the spicy/soothing format of the original beer cocktail, and brings some interesting hot seasonings, cooling watermelon, and hibiscus flavors into the mix.

Both cocktail and chips feature lime, spiciness, and salt. The crispness of the chips offers a textural counterpoint.

The hot salsa and chili powder in the dish match the drink's heat; the beer stands up to the strong cilantro, cumin, onion, and cheese flavors.

Popular in the U.K., where it's also known as a Shandygaff, this drink mixes equal parts beer with either ginger ale, ginger beer, or carbonated lemonade (some folks even use Sprite or alcoholic sodas like Smirnoff Ice and Mike's Hard Lemonade). If the drink has multiple sources of alcohol, it's called a TurboShandy. In the following recipe from Gourmet, fresh lemonade and mint are used instead of bottled products.

The light, lemony shandy pairs perfectly with spicy food. Try it with any hot Asian dish, such as this noodle salad.

The lemonade in the shandy makes it a go-to choice for barbecues; the chicken recipe can be prepared year-round.

Bartender Gina Chersevani developed this cheeky beer cocktail as a "cure" for the economic recession: It sells for the discounted price of $5 on her menu at PS 7's in Washington, DC. It combines a light, value-priced beer such as Miller High Life with a splash of juice and ginger liqueur.

Light beer and lemon will take the heat off these classic chicken wings.

The ginger in the drink is spicy like the mustard in the recipe and holds its own against the smoky meats in the sandwich.

The Stout Diplomat

Yanni Kehagiaras of San Francisco's Nopa restaurant created this dessert drink for a beer-cocktail competition. "The rum is in there to give this short beer cocktail a bit of a punch," he says. You could make it with a white rum instead of a dark or aged one and still focus on the beer, but the Diplomatico rum that Kehagiaras favors offers a caramel flavor and slight sweetness (instead of a spicy or funky rum) that seems less likely to clash with food flavors. The approach, like the drink, is likely to win fans on both sides of the beer/cocktail divide. It's a smart drink with wide appeal, befitting its name.

Kehagiaras designed this cocktail to be a dessert drink, but the weight and flavor of the stout will also stand up to the salt and oil of fish and chips.

Pairing a chocolate dessert with a chocolate dessert cocktail may seem like too much, but that's never stopped any chocoholics we know.

Ginger Beer Cocktails

Adding ginger beer to a refreshing cocktail is an easy way to pump up flavor and add a little fizz. We love to pour it in everything from citrusy punches to peachy rum drinks. Here, 9 delicious ginger beer cocktail recipes.

Rosemary-Ginger Sparkler

Bourbon, rosemary and lots of fresh ginger transform a summery Moscow Mule into a perfect winter cocktail. If you prefer vodka, feel free to swap it in for the bourbon.

The Tempest

This riff on a Dark and Stormy is from Sean Kenyon, the owner and barkeep of Williams & Graham in Denver. "With a hurricane of spices in the rum as well as ginger and Angostura bitters, it may seem too much," he says, "but the peaches tie it all together."

Ginger Shandies

These super-easy drinks are made with Hoegaarden, ginger beer, mint and lemon.

El Gusano Rojo

This downtown Portland cocktail lounge, which is popular with students from the nearby Maine College of Art, features local art, DJs and live bands.

Maybelle Punch

This classy, Cognac-based drink is sweet and gingery.

Based on the Moscow Mule, a 1940s drink developed to promote Smirnoff vodka, Loa's Cheval uses muddled cucumber.

Sunset Punch

This bourbon based party punch will please any thirsty crowd.

Hibiscus-Ginger Beer Zingers

Bubbly drinks in all their forms, from sparkling wine to fizzy ginger beer, inspire an effervescent bubble party. Pair them with a cool Vietnamese-style noodle salad tossed in a bright (and fat-free) citrus dressing.

Rio-Style Ginger Beer Floats

Eric Ripert's sweet, fizzy drink, made with orange juice, passion fruit and mango sorbet, is his Brazilian take on a typical American root beer float.

8 Easy and Refreshing Ginger Beer Cocktails You Need to Know

Posted September 10th, 2014 by Beth Wittenstein

Ginger beer is a naturally fermented ginger drink that has become a staple in our home bars for its versatility and seamless pairing with boozy beverages. Compared to ginger ale, ginger beer is spicier and less sweet, with a natural fizz that makes it a welcome addition in some of our favorite cocktails. Classic drinks keep it simple with just ginger beer, booze, and one or two extra flavors to round out the adaptable recipe for a spicy buzz.

As recipe curators, food writers, and eaters, we Noshers tend to shy away from math. More accurately, we tend to run screaming toward the nearest drink, which we then sip anxiously until the alcohol soothes our nerves. Unless it’s a fraction dictating the amount of sugar to add in a recipe, we want nothing to do with math.

In this rare exception, the calming beverage and angst-inducing mathematical formula are one in the same. The equation is simple and the payoff immediate. Ginger + booze + flourish = heaven in a highball glass.

One great thing about ginger beer (besides its versatility) is how easy it is to make yourself at home! Try fermenting some yourself with this recipe and guide from The Roasted Root.

Classic and simple, the ginger beer cocktails of the Mule family are a fun batch of oddballs that fit a similar formula, originating from the same set of parents. Ginger beer and booze come together with a little citrus twist to create fun and unique cocktails.

Ginger beer + Vodka + Lime = Moscow Mule

Perhaps the most famous of all, the Moscow Mule is the Russian standard. Strong and boozy, it’s a crowd pleaser! (Recipe and photo: The Framed Table)

Ginger beer + Rye + Lime = Rye Mule

Back to basics, this simple cocktail does nothing more than substitute a manly, spicy alternative to vodka. (Recipe and photo: Relishing It)

Ginger beer + Bourbon + Lemon + Mint = Mighty Kentucky Mule

A sprig of mint and some lemon spruce up bourbon like the classy Kentucky derby favorite Mint Julep. Never straying far from home, this ginger beer beverage is dubbed the Mighty Kentucky Mule. (Recipe and photo: In Sock Monkey Slippers)

Ginger beer + Vodka + Lime + Peach = Georgia Mule

Nothing like some Georgia peaches to sweeten up your summer cocktail. Add some lime, vodka, and ginger for a Southern belle’s delight. (Recipe and photo: Real Housemoms)

THE STORMS

A stormy ginger cocktail is just ginger beer + booze + lime. Give or take an ingredient. Why isn’t the Dark and Stormy called the Stormy Mule? Or the Nor’Easter called the Eastern Mule? Because they dared to be different. Branding and marketing took a play here, but we’ll leave that for another day.

Ginger beer + Dark Rum + Lime = Dark and Stormy

In the islands south of Florida where rum is in abundance, so too are thunder and rain. This classic cocktail is the “perfect storm” of ginger beer, dark rum, and lime. Grab a drink and wait out the rain. (Recipe and photo: Thyme of Taste)

Ginger beer + Bourbon + Lime + Maple = Nor’Easter

Moving up the coast, New England maple makes an appearance alongside bourbon in this northern adaptation to a stormy cocktail. (Recipe and photo: Pictures and Pancakes)

THE OTHERS

If you can come up with a clever name for any of these delightful alternative cocktails, we’re all ears! Until now, we’re getting tipsy on “the others.”

Ginger beer + Vodka + Cider + Cinnamon = Ginger Beer Apple Cider

Upon returning from the apple orchards with a fresh-picked bushel of apples and some apple cider, we can’t wait to sip on a classy gingery cocktail made for fall! (Recipe and photo: JJBegonia)

Ginger beer + Tequila + Lime + Sweetener = Ginger Margarita

Believe it or not, ginger pairs quite nicely with tequila. A little spice, a little burn, and we’ve got ourselves a margarita! (Recipe and photo: Fab Fatale)
