Penicillin Cocktail is a bourbon drink that is stacked with astounding flavors, for example, ginger, lemon and nectar. It is sweet, it is new, it is hot and it is basically DELICIOUS. The Penicillin is flawless as a Winter mixed drink when you have an irritated throat, need a beverage to warm you straight up or my top pick – for St. Patrick's Day!
The Penicillin was initially made by the New York barkeep Sam Ross in 2005 and is generally made with bourbon, in spite of the fact that I've seen it with both rum and tequila too. It utilizes a mellow bourbon as its base, alongside ginger, nectar and lemon. It is topped with a more grounded woody bourbon, for example, an Islay Malt. Notwithstanding, I am one of the individuals who just own one bourbon and don't rush to the alcohol store to purchase things I'd once in a while use. This implies this formula just has one sort of bourbon, and you recognize what – I couldn't care less, on the grounds that this is a darn decent mixed drink that I'm certain you will like as well!
Since you have to make a ginger syrup, this formula takes a brief period the first occasion when you make it. But since the ginger syrup is all that anyone could need for one mixed drink, you will consistently have the Penicillin mixed drink directly readily available (or in the refrigerator).

Ingredients
The Penicillin Cocktail
- 6 oz Scotch whiskey * 180ml
- 3 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice about 3 lemons
- 1.5 oz ginger syrup 3 tbsp. See below
- 1.5 oz honey syrup 3 tbsp. See below
- 2 sprigs rosemary for garnish, optional
Ginger Syrup - makes 1 cup
- 20 oz ginger 460-570g**. peeled and roughly chopped. to yield 1/2 cup juice
- 1/2 cup sugar 100g
- 3/4 cup honey 180ml/255g ***
- 1/4 cup hot water 60ml
Instructions
Ginger Syrup
- Remove the peel from the ginger. It's easiest to scrape using the back of a spoon.
- If you've got a juicer, this is the definite best way of juicing your ginger. You need less ginger to make the same amount of juice. However, if you don't have a juicer, you can use a food processor and then a nut milk bag or a cheesecloth. Just squeeze the juice out of the pulp.
- Then combine the ginger juice with an equal amount of sugar. So 1/2 cup of ginger juice needs 1/2 cup of sugar. Shake to dissolve the sugar. Pour into a jar with a tight lid. This mixture holds in the fridge for at least 1 month.
Honey Syrup
- Mix honey with warm water until the honey dissolves. Pour this into a jar with a tight lid too and it will keep in the fridge for at least 1 month.
The Penicillin Cocktail
- Combine ginger syrup, honey syrup, lemon juice and whiskey with a few ice cubes in a shaker. Shake vigorously for 15 seconds. Strain into your favorite whiskey glass.
- I also love to garnish with a rosemary sprig. It adds a nice, aromatic touch that goes wonderful with ginger and whiskey. Relax, and enjoy all this 'cures all' drink has to offer.
Notes
* The traditional Penicillin usually uses Scotch whiskey as the body of the drink, but also Islay Scotch floating on top. After you made your drink, float a splash of Islay Scotch on top. If you've got it, why don't you use it!
** If you use a juicer, you can use less fresh ginger than if you use a food processor to get the same amount of juice.
*** To make this drink vegan, simply swap honey with maple syrup. But it's no need to dilute the maple syrup with warm water as it's already pretty pourable.
