- A brief history of The Kings Ginger... In a chilly kingdom, King Edward VII needed warmth for his winter rides. His royal pharmacist crafted a magical ginger elixir that chased away the cold. Known as the “King’s Ginger,” this golden potion kept the king cosy and spirited, its fame spreading far and wide as the drink that warmed a king and his kingdom alike. A taste of this royal tipple awaits all guests staying with us.
