FAQ's
We've collated some quick fire Q&A's on the question to help you find exactly what you're looking for.

What is ginger ale?
Ginger ale is a carbonated soft drink flavored with ginger. It is typically sweetened and can be consumed on its own or used as a mixer in cocktails, adding a spicy and fizzy element to the drinks.

How does ginger ale affect the taste of a cocktail?
Ginger ale adds a sweet, spicy, and slightly tangy flavor to cocktails. Its effervescence also contributes a refreshing, bubbly texture that complements a variety of spirits, particularly whiskey and rum.

Is there a difference between ginger ale and ginger beer?
Yes, there is. Ginger ale is typically sweeter and milder, while ginger beer has a stronger, more pronounced ginger flavor. Ginger beer also tends to be less carbonated and can add a more robust kick to cocktails.

Can ginger ale be substituted with something else?
If you don't have ginger ale, you can use ginger beer for a stronger ginger flavor. Alternatively, club soda or tonic water with a dash of ginger syrup can be used, but keep in mind this will alter the taste of the cocktail slightly.

What other ingredients pair well with ginger ale in cocktails?
Ginger ale pairs well with various ingredients including lime, lemon, berries, mint, and other herbs, as well as a range of spirits like whiskey, rum, gin, and vodka. It adds versatility and a unique flavor profile to many drinks.
