Comments
This is a cocktail, not a meal, and it arrives in 45 minutes only if you're leisurely about it—actual mixing takes five minutes. All four ingredients are stocked at every Charlotte chain; whiskey and ice are groceries anyone might have, ginger and orange are produce staples. At roughly two dollars per drink, it's an efficient pour for a weeknight aperitif. The real strength is that it requires no skill, reheats nothing (it's meant cold), and scales effortlessly if friends drop by.
