Ginger Wine Spritzer

Another fun discovery in Australia: ginger wine. An area in Queensland is known for their tasty ginger: Bundaberg! 

The bf prefers this with a sprinkle of brown sugar, but it's also excellent without since the ginger wine has a nice, sweetness to begin with.

Ingredients

• Ginger wine
• Mint leaves
• Lemon juice
• Brown sugar (optional)
• Ice (enough for your glass)
• Soda water

Directions

1. Depending on how much mint flavor you like it, muddle a small bunch of mint leaves in lemon juice, which should fill about 1/8 of your glass. 
2. Add the brown sugar (optional), to taste, and stir.
3. Fill 3/4 of the glass with ice.
4. Fill with ginger wine until the mixture is about 3/4 full. 
5. Top it off with soda water and enjoy!
