Pour 1 ounce of bourbon into 4 ice-filled glasses.
Divide ginger ale among glasses.
Squeeze one lime wedge into each glass and drop the spent shell in the drink.
Garnish with candied ginger and serve immediately.
Notes
Feel free to substitute the bourbon with your favorite whiskey (rye whiskey, Irish whiskey, Scotch whiskey, etc.) or use vodka, gin, rum or tequila instead.
