Ginger beer is a non-alcoholic carbonated beverage that is made from fermented ginger, sugar, water, and sometimes other flavorings like lemon or lime. It can be enjoyed on its own as a standalone drink, often served over ice, or used as a mixer in cocktails like the famous Moscow Mule or the Dark 'n' Stormy. The bold and zesty flavor of ginger beer adds a kick to beverages, making it a popular choice for those who enjoy a bit of spice. In addition to its use in cocktails, ginger beer can also be used in cooking and baking, adding a unique flavor to dishes like marinades, sauces, and even desserts.
