– bonnie: Ginger is considered both an effective aid to digestion and — in Southeast Asia — an aphrodisiac. Amazingly, the addition of the ginger flavor (and spices) to this vodka results in a pleasantly, slightly spicy drink that I thoroughly enjoyed neat. I’m sure many mixologists will find it a great addition to many cocktails.
