Despite its Massachusetts-related name, the Boston Cooler's most devoted fanbase is situated in Detroit. The fizzy beverage is made from bubbly ginger ale and vanilla ice cream.
When it comes to the ingredients, the consensus is pretty clear: an authentic Detroit Boston cooler should use one part Vernors ginger ale to three parts ice cream.
The carbonated star of a classic Boston Cooler is one of America's oldest sodas. Vernor's ginger ale was pioneered by licensed pharmacist and Detroit local James Vernor in 1866.
