Thanks for an honest review. If you get a chance, I would love to see you review Jamaican Ginger Ale. Wife found it in the International Section at Kroger, brought it home, and I loved on it. I do not know if there is a Jamaican Ginger that is hotter than most or if they just use a lot. But you can taste the ginger for at least a 30 second count after you swallow. Not painful hot, just really nice warming and very noticeable flavor.
