Cocktail Roulette: Ginger Figgle aka "Slow Screw"

Did you know Cloak & Dinner has a book club? Why yes we do, and our first task is tackling the whole George R.R. Martin manifesto while brainstorming appropriate feast like courses for the eventual "Game of Thrones" C&D event in the near future... GET EXCITED!

Thankfully our awesome mixologist Isaac conjured up a fitting cocktail to accompany a long stint of reading in a cozy chair. From our Cloak & Dinner: The Time Machine, here's a little "how to" on the Ginger Figgle!

GINGER FIGGLE 
  • 2oz Gin
  • 1 oz fresh squeezed OJ
  • 1 fresh fig (or 2 spoons fig jam)
  • 2 slices fresh ginger root
Press the ginger root and add a sliced fig or 2 spoonfuls of fig jam and muddle. Add in the gin and orange juice and shake well. Strain and serve in a stemmed cocktail glass. Garnish with a slice of fresh fig and/or orange spiral and candied ginger.

  1. That looks so delicious. I think you should come to New York and throw an event where you just make large quantities of the Ginger Figgle.

  2. Besides for being a great juicer it also will allow you to juice your produce and such without making a lot of noise with fast running parts. You will be surprised at just how quickly the Hurom slow juicer will put out the juice that you so desire.Best slow juicer in India
