Pro Tips
- For an extra spicy drink, muddle additional chili pepper slices or use a spicier variety of pepper.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less simple syrup to suit your taste.
- If you prefer a less intense ginger flavor, reduce the amount of ginger slices or top with a milder ginger beer.
- Serve in a chilled glass to keep the cocktail cool and refreshing.
