The Mary Anne Cocktail
The Mary Anne Cocktail
- 3 cups Ginger Simple Syrup (recipe below)
- 2 cups Bourbon
- 2.5 cups Lime Juice (about 9 or 10 limes)
- 1 quart Ginger Ale
- Lime slices for garnish
Combine the first three ingredients and refrigerate. To serve, fill a lowball glass with ice. Pour equal parts mix and ginger ale into the glass and stir. Garnish with a slice of lime. This should be enough for 8 people to have 2 to 3 drinks each.
Ginger Simple Syrup
- 3 cups Water
- 1 cup Sugar
- 1.5 cups sliced ginger
Combine ingredients in saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring to make sure all the sugar dissolves. Turn off heat and cover, allowing mixture to steep for 45 minutes. Strain through cheesecloth and let cool before using. I set the bowl of strained syrup inside a larger bowl that was filled with ice to speed the process.
