The Ginger James is part of the Tiki Cocktails family.
Using the famous Maï taï Cocktail as a basis, I wanted to create a Tiki that is spicy thanks to the ginger juice, luscious from the orgeat, fresh and acidic thanks to the lime and with a touch of resin and herbs from Green Chartreuse.
This alliance is enhanced by the ring of Saint James Bitters which slowly infuses through the glass.
Aloha!
