    I was surprised but I actually bought it at our local wine store and it was around $10 Cdn. I hope they still have it, I haven't looked for it again for the last year.

    Green ginger wine? Now, I'll have to google that one. I love shrimp that has a good spicy dipping sauce. We make a version of Paula Deen's black pepper shrimp, spread the table with newspaper and a roll of paper towels and have at it, butter dripping off your elbows and finger lickin good.
