The cocktail is made with the distiller's triple-distilled Irish whiskey as well as natural ginger and lime flavours. Kate Pomeroy, head of innovation at Pernod Ricard North America, said: "The Jameson Ginger & Lime ready-to-drink cocktail was inspired by one of our all-time fan-favourite recipes. Our goal was simple – to create a cocktail experience that is easy and delicious."
