Foodie Swellness: Mad Jack’s new Ginger Flavoured Lager and Hard Root Beer

May 23, 2016

So for the past while, I’ve been looking for a ready-made alcoholic bevvie that doesn’t taste like cough syrup (I find so many of the berry flavoured ones taste like so) and that’s easy to drink (too many harsh tasting vodka-based coolers).

I’m not a beer drinker (once in awhile at an event or, you know, back in my sorority days…) but I have come around to being a fan of ciders, but I only recently discovered Mad Jack. And to its original apple lager, the brand has just added two new flavours, which kinda fill the “need” for when you just want a pop, but alcoholic. I love all things ginger lately and so the Mad Jack Ginger Flavoured Lager is yummy and not too overly ginger-y (I’ve had ginger beers that burn because of the strong ginger flavour), and the Hard Root Beer? It’s actually made me like root beer (which is a soft drink I have never been too fond of).

I’m all for drinks that you can just pop open and enjoy (I’ll leave the muddling and shaking to the bartender to do!) and I know I will be picking up this trio this summer.

Stay tuned for more of my favourite summer drinks and cocktails on the blog!
