Ingredients
- ice
- 1 fluid ounce grenadine
- 1 lime juice
- 8 fluid ounces ginger ale
- maraschino cherries optional garnish
- lime wedges optional garnish
Instructions
- Fill your chosen glass with ice - a favorite is a Collins glass or a tumbler.
- Add 1 fluid ounce of grenadine to the glass over the ice.
- Squeeze the juice from the lime into the glass.
- Add 8 fluid ounces of ginger ale.
- Decorate with maraschino cherries and slices of lime.
Notes
- Rose’s Grenadine Syrup will be your best bet if these cocktails are for kids, as it has a very sugary sweet taste. If you are making this for adults with a more seasoned palate, there are other types of grenadine out there that you will find behind most bars - the ingredients are more complex using pomegranate juice.
- The typical ratio for this classic cocktail is 1:8. If you are using a bigger glass, for example, a mason jar, double the recipe and retain the 1:8 ratio.
- Add a pretty straw to your delicious drinks to add to the charm.
