ginger cordial
Warming sweet beverage
Ginger cordial is a sweet, concentrated syrup flavored with ginger, typically diluted with water or mixed into drinks.
In British usage, cordials are non-alcoholic syrups; elsewhere the term may suggest a sweetened liqueur.
The drink appears in period fiction—Anne Shirley accidentally serves it to Diana Barry in *Anne of Green Gables*: She poured out a tumblerful of the ginger cordial.
