Tips
- Chill the cognac, gin, lime juice, ginger beer, and syrup before mixing so the batch cools faster and tastes sharper.
- Pour the ginger beer slowly to keep foam under control before adding the mixture to the machine.
- Serve in chilled glasses to help the icy texture hold longer.
- A lime wheel or a small piece of candied ginger makes a fitting garnish if you want a simple finish.
