72 ounce lager beer dark such as negra modelo, chilled
0.8 teaspoon peppercorns whole black
6 tablespoons rum dark
1.5 cups ginger thinly sliced
6 servings ice cubes
6 tablespoons juice of lime fresh
6 servings lime wedges for garnish
1 cup sugar
12 allspice whole
Equipment
pot
Directions
Combine 2 cups water with the sugar, peppercorns, allspice and ginger in a small pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Simmer until slightly reduced and a bit syrupy, about 25 minutes.
Remove from the heat, cool and then strain. You will have about 1 1/4 cups syrup.
Mix the ginger syrup and lime juice together. Fill each pint glass halfway with ice and add 2 to 4 tablespoons of ginger syrup, depending on how gingery you want it, to each glass.
Pour a bottle of beer over the syrup, and then slowly pour a tablespoonful of dark rum over the top so it floats.
