craving a ginger cocktail

Has anyone had a really great ginger cocktail recently? I'm looking for places around LA that make really delicious drinks with some element of ginger -- a ginger puree that gives it a sort of spicy zing, really good ginger brew, etc.

  1. I had a great ginger cocktail at The Hungry Cat in Santa Monica Canyon. I know it was made with vodka. It was pretty damn fabulous.

          Second the Varnish, also 1886 in Pasadena (inside the Raymond). You can just let the bartenders know that you want a gingery drink and they'll take care of you!

            2nd 1886 - I think there's one on their specialty cocktail menu, and it's good.

        2. I had an amazing Moscow Mule at Bouchon a few weeks ago. One of the best cocktails I've ever had in my life. I hate vodka, but I still went back a week later just for that cocktail.
