Naveen and I have a tradition of spending time together watching movies every Friday evenings until late night. The movies are usually accompanied with some healthy crisps and chilled fruit drinks. After few weeks, we got bored of same fruit juices and that is when I thought I can try Ginger beer. Ginger beer gives a good detox to our body and it contains a high amount of fiber.
Naveen loves it and so do I. Except for people who do not like gingery flavor, Ginger Beer is loved by all age groups.
