Sparkling Perrier Jamaican Ginger Beer
Fresh and spicy, this popular nonalcoholic sparkling beverage has deep roots in the Caribbean due to the global spice trade. Historically one of the world’s most well-known growers of ginger and sugarcane, Jamaica popularized this carbonated drink by way of British influence. It is perfect as a refreshing drink on its own or can be added to a variety of cocktails, such as the famous Moscow mule.
