Hey guys

Got my first batch of ginger beer fermenting along nicely

I was wondering what peoples thoughts on adding a shot of dark rum when bottling?

Has anyone tried this?
 
It's better with a shot of strong apple jack or apple brandy, but I agree, premixing drinks and bottling is a poor use of time and only limits your options. The novelty of a bottled cocktail wears off pretty fast.
 
Well have bottled 6 and rest of the 20lts will be straight Ginger beer
 
How did this turn out? I am making a strong ginger mead to make dark and stormys. If the bottles aged, it would be interesting to see if the flavors develop like the brandy addition in a port wine
 
I love using a bottle of my ginger beer, mixing it with ginger infused vodka, and adding fresh lime juice. Moscow mule maybe? I dunno, but it gives me a chance to use copper mugs and feel fancy while at the same time making SWSMBO happy.
