Comments
This is a cocktail, not a recipe for meal planning, and falls outside our grocery-and-dinner focus. If we were to evaluate it as written: every ingredient is instantly available at any Charlotte grocer (ice, whiskey, lime juice, ginger ale, and fresh lime), the stated five minutes is honest, and the cost per serving runs about $2–$3 depending on whiskey choice. However, Grocery List Plus reviews recipes for feeding people, not drinks for a single person. This belongs in a cocktail guide, not a meal plan.
