The Bijlmermeer (Bijlmer Lake) has been part of the Amsterdam Southeast urban district since 1987. It has always been a cultural melting pot: today, most of its residents are Dutch, Surinamese, and Antillean Islanders, but many other cultures also have a strong presence – you can find a total of over 130 nationalities residing here! This cocktail starts with Surinamese ginger beer (djiendja bierie, as they call it) – don’t be fooled by the name! It’s a spicy soft drink found in some form in many tropical countries. The vanilla syrup adds a smooth sweetness, which combines with the lime
and pineapple juice to take just a little of the ginger edge off.
