• If you don't have ginger syrup, you can make your own by simmering equal parts of water and sugar with sliced ginger until the sugar dissolves.
• To make a mocktail version, simply omit the vodka and add a splash of sparkling water or ginger ale.

Storage and Serving

• You can prepare the ginger syrup in advance and store it in the refrigerator for up to a week.
