Schweppes Ginger Ale 300ml
★★★★★ 5.0 (4 reviews)Pour it cold and you get that fizzy little ginger bite that wakes the whole glass up. On its own it's a proper grown-up soft drink, all golden colour and warm spice. But the real move is splashing it over whisky or dark rum and watching a quiet evening turn into a good one. No alcohol in it, just gingery sparkle that plays nice with everything.
First thing you notice is the fizz, tight and lively, then a wave of sweet ginger that's more cosy than fiery. It's golden and gently spicy, sweet up front with a soft warming kick on the way down. Not a hot, throat-grabbing ginger. Think mellow, rounded, easy to keep sipping. The bubbles fade clean so you're not left with anything sticky.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
Schweppes is basically the granddad of fizzy drinks. A German watchmaker named Johann Jacob Schweppe cracked how to carbonate water on a real scale and set up shop in Geneva back in 1783, which makes this one of the oldest soft drink names on the planet. It got so posh that King William IV gave it a royal warrant in 1836. The ginger ale came later and earned the nickname the champagne of soft drinks for its golden colour and lively sparkle.
