Years before a separate plant was established in this country, this famous old ginger ale was served in the Houses of Parliament in Canada, in the residence of the Governor-General and in the Royal Canadian Yacht Club. Such patronage is not easily won, nor freely given. Truly it has been said that until you try “Canada Dry” you have no idea how good ginger ale can 1eally be! Made in the U. S.
