Gin and ginger are a match made in cocktail heaven. Spicy ginger complements gin’s floral, herbal botanicals to reach a balanced flavor that goes down easy anytime of year. Add some sparkling lemonade to the mix, and you have quite the refreshment on your hands. We took it one step further by turning this boozy, sparkling treat into Jello, which is perfect for serving at your next springtime gathering. Sprinkle these jiggly shots with pink sugar to transform them into a beautiful Easter dessert that is a surefire crowd-pleaser.
