FRIED COFFEE

While running around the internet reading about food I came across this post on ginger drinks.  Ginger is my all time favorite flavor.  I first encountered it as the feature of my Grandmother Bell’s ginger snap cookies and breads, later as a soft drink ( Vernor’s ),   then in crystallized form, and thankfully, in curries as a savory ingredient and in Japan – pickled. It’s all wonderful.

Ginger seems to have medicinal value as well and has been used by herbalists far back in history to treat quite a variety of complaints.

Then there is this amusing post from  The Amateur Gourmet.

Now I need to track down the afore-mentioned ginger libations. My curiosity won’t rest until I do.

Twelfth Night, II, 3:
CLOWN: Yes, by Saint Anne, and ginger shall be hot i’ the mouth too.
