 Ginger wine can be drunk with ice ("on the rocks"), or without ice (either "neat" or "straight up"), and is frequently used as an ingredient—along with whisky (typically a blended Scotch whisky)—in a "Whisky Mac" (the shortened form of "Whisky Macdonald").Ginger wine can also be served mixed with other beverages, such as lemonade, ginger ale, bitter lemon or diluted with water.Ginger wine is traditionally sold in green glass bottles, although the word "green" may or may not appear on the label.
