That’s why back in the 50s our moms and nans always gave us ginger ale when we were home sick with a cold.

Re “...back in the 50s our moms and nans always gave us ginger ale when we were home sick with a cold” I remember getting it when sick, but connect it to curing upset stomach.

On further review, I think we had it in the house for company and the adult ‘Highballs’ ...

Do you know if what we can now buy in supermarkets has actual Ginger in it? What about “Ginger Beer”?
