Crater Lake Sweet Ginger is a house-infused ginger vodka from Crater Lake Spirits in Bend, Oregon, bottled at 35% ABV (70 proof).
It is a delightful balance of zing and sweetness, infused with whole-root and crystallised ginger.
The ginger gives it a quick zing, followed by a rich sweetness that leaves a pleasant tingle on the tongue.
It is perfect for elevating classic cocktails like the Moscow Mule, and a versatile companion for seasonal cocktails all year, from summer coolers to warming winter drinks. Because the ginger is real root, the spice tastes fresh and natural rather than sugary.
Crater Lake Spirits has made small-batch spirits in Bend, Oregon, since 1996, and its flavoured vodkas are gluten-free and certified kosher.

How to Enjoy It
Crater Lake Sweet Ginger makes a supercharged Moscow Mule: build it over ice in a copper mug with ginger beer and fresh lime. It is also excellent in a Ginger Lemon Drop, with soda water and lime as a light highball, or with hot water, honey and lemon as a winter toddy. Add it to apple cider in autumn or to iced tea in summer. For a crowd, set up a Mule bar with copper mugs, ginger beer, limes, fresh mint and a few sliced chillies for anyone who likes extra heat. Pair it with sushi, Thai curries, gingerbread and ginger snaps. For a gathering, chill the bottle and set out glasses, ice and garnishes so guests can serve themselves. A bottle also makes a thoughtful host gift for a dinner party or the holidays.
