Instructions

  • Fill a highball glass or tumbler halfway with ice. Pour the broth, apple cider vinegar, grape juice, and lime juice over the ice. Stir well, then top off the glass with ginger ale.
  • Garnish with a lime wedge or fresh grape.

Notes

Best enjoyed immediately, this drink can also be pre-mixed without ginger ale and stored in the refrigerator for a few hours. For a sweeter drink, use a splash of white grape juice instead of lime.
