What is "ginger ale"?
Ginger ale is a carbonated soft drink that is flavored with ginger. It is typically made from carbonated water, sugar or high fructose corn syrup, and ginger root or ginger extract. Some brands also include additional flavorings such as lemon or lime juice. Ginger ale has a sweet and slightly spicy taste and is often consumed as a non-alcoholic alternative to beer or wine. It is a popular mixer for cocktails such as Moscow Mules and Dark and Stormys, and is also commonly used as a remedy for upset stomachs or nausea. Ginger ale has been produced since the mid-19th century and is now available in many different brands and varieties.
