Blenheim's Ginger Ale -
Hamer, SC
http://www.blenheimgingerale.com/
This

bite comes either mild or hot. Both will set you free! Very
hard to find outside of South Carolina but the locations are
listed on the website. Hope you live nearby one of the
stores listed.
A
little history: The mineral springs were discovered in 1781
by James Spears, a Whig, who was trying to escape Tory
troops. According to legend, Mr. Spears lost a shoe in a
water hole. When he returned to retrieve his shoe, he tasted
the water and noticed its strong mineral content. Word of
the spring spread and soon people were coming to taste the
cool refreshing water. Several wealthy plantation owners
built summer homes in the vicinity of the springs. In the
late 1800's Dr. C. R. May advised his patients with stomach
problems to drink the mineral water. When these patients
complained about the strong taste of the mineral water, Dr.
May added Jamaican Ginger to it. In 1903, Dr. May and A. J.
Matheson opened the Blenheim Bottling Company. The building
which houses the bottling works today was constructed in
1920.

Americans mixed & fixed whatever local flavors were at
hand-herbal infusions, pine needles, fruit skins, and roots
into wine and hard ciders. Tea punch bowls were a favorite
at weddings and society gatherings. By 1888, warmed punches
were ladled into cups filled with bourbon soaked sugar
cubes. These recipes remain today and are closely guarded
secrets."
