¿Qué es Ginger Beer?
Ginger beer is a carbonated, sweetened, non-alcoholic beverage flavored primarily with ginger. Traditionally fermented with a 'ginger bug' (a symbiotic culture of yeast and bacteria), modern commercial versions are often carbonated artificially.
"While often confused with ginger ale, true ginger beer offers a much more intense and often spicier ginger kick, making it a distinct ingredient in its own right."
