The Ultimate Ginger Ale Showdown: Why Pointless Ginger Ale Reigns Supreme
by Ryan Chaif on Aug 20, 2024
The Not-So-Secret Ingredients of Popular Ginger Ale Brands
Let’s start with a reality check. Many mainstream ginger ale brands—think Canada Dry, Schweppes, and Seagram's—lean heavily on artificial flavors and high sugar content. Sure, they might hit the spot in a pinch, but what are you really getting? Spoiler alert: it’s not all sunshine and ginger.
Artificial Flavors: The Big Faker
Ever read the label on your favorite ginger ale and stumbled upon “artificial flavors”? It’s like a magic trick—poof, and suddenly your drink tastes like ginger, but it’s as real as a three-dollar bill. These artificial flavors are lab concoctions, lacking the true essence and health benefits of genuine ginger. Plus, they often leave an unpleasant, chemical aftertaste that makes you wonder why you didn’t just drink water instead.
"Natural Flavors": A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing
Don’t be fooled by the term “natural flavors.” It sounds wholesome, like grandma’s apple pie, but it’s often anything but. These so-called natural flavors can be derived from a variety of sources, many of which have never even been in the same room as a ginger root. It’s the ultimate bait-and-switch.
Sugar Overload: The Sweet Trap
High sugar content is another common culprit. Many ginger ales pack more sugar than a candy store, masking the real flavors and turning your beverage into a sugary nightmare. Not only does this overload your drink with empty calories, but it also raises health concerns like obesity and diabetes. Yikes.
