I’m sharing a new addiction that Brendan of Endless Simmer introduced me to: ginger beer. Yes, this is a baking blog, so I should leave the beer talk to others, but then I’ve never been a rule follower.
I am fairly good at recognizing my limitations. So let me say one thing and one thing only: If you are late to the ginger beer party like me – think ginger chew meets beer.
Aside from drinking this, I also got busy working it into a cocktail popsicle (coming soon) and it will also be finding its way in between some butter and sugar-stay tuned.
Obviously, no recipe. If you are wondering why the apples? Well like any inexperienced bartender, but lover of cocktails, it was a random test. Guess what – it’s pretty fantastic. The apple gives the beer a nice soft bite of tart sweetness-subtle but definitely noticeable.
Enjoy your weekend and I”ll see you Sunday for a full dose of fat, sugar and butter.

This sounds fabulous. I love this idea!

Yum, I’ll have to put some apple in my next ginger beer. Looking forward to the popsicle recipe. You should have a go at brewing some, it’s really easy! I have a recipe on my blog. Abby

I am with you on the ginger beer obsession… some of my favorite drinks (Moscow Mule, Pim’s Cup, Dark ‘n Stormy) have ginger beer and I love a place that makes their own. Such a fabulous post, Naomi! Cheers!
Amy says
Liking the sound of this! Refreshing!
Ann P. says
you are one lucky lady to drink this delicious mixture! Can’t wait for the popsicle!
Deanna says
Sounds fantastic! I love ginger beer, and I love the idea of not buying it even more.

Ginger produces a hot, fragrant kitchen spice.[5] Young ginger rhizomes are juicy and fleshy with a very mild taste. They are often pickled in vinegar or sherry as a snack or just cooked as an ingredient in many dishes. They can also be steeped in boiling water to make ginger tea, to which honey is often added; sliced orange or lemon fruit may also be added. Ginger can also be made into candy, or ginger wine which has been made commercially since 1740.`
All the best
