Fresh ginger, pomegranate, lemon & ginger beer
Pomegranate and ginger are two of the oldest flavouring agents in Indian cuisine — both appearing in Ayurvedic medicine as digestive aids. Tamarind Tribeca pairs them in this assertive highball that works as an aperitif or throughout the meal.
Use ginger beer (fermented, more complex) rather than ginger ale for a spicier result. Fresh ginger muddled into the glass gives a more fibrous, rounded heat than juiced ginger. Fever-Tree ginger beer works particularly well.
Tamarind in Tribeca has been one of New York's most refined Indian dining destinations for over two decades. The mocktail menu features signature non-alcoholic drinks that have become as well-known as the food — built around fresh Indian ingredients, they're designed to pair with the complex, spice-forward cooking that the kitchen is known for.
