00:00Why does everyone say ginger ale is the best drink to order on a flight?
00:03Well it's been proven time and time again that our taste buds act a little differently when we fly.
00:07This is because the dry air and cabin pressure can dull our sense of taste and smell,
00:11impacting sweetness and saltiness the most.
00:14With ginger ale, its sweetness may not register on your taste buds,
00:17giving it that dry, extra sharp, refreshing taste.
00:20Ginger also helps ease digestion, so many drink it to soothe their stomach,
00:24despite whether or not there's actual ginger in the brand they're drinking.
