Canada Dry ginger ale began in 1904 as Pale Ginger Ale. Its founder, John J. McLaughlin, owned a sparkling water plant in Canada, so when he saw the rise in popularity of more syrupy ginger ales, he set to work perfecting a lighter version. This became the Canada Dry Ginger Ale we know today. Let everyone know you are a fan of the delicious ginger ale when you wear this Vintage Canada Dry T-Shirt.
