What is Ginger Ale?
Ginger ale is a carbonated soft drink flavored primarily with the essence of ginger and perhaps a citrus oil to balance out the natural peppery tartness. Ginger ale is a popular mixer for certain cocktails and mixed drinks, and is also the main ingredient in a non-alcoholic mocktail known as a Shirley Temple. Many people enjoy mixing ginger ale with frozen sherbet and fruit punch concentrate to form a very sweet and refreshing communal beverage at parties and receptions.
