If you go to Costa Rica and want to order a ginger ale, do it like this:
"Regáleme una gin"
Gin is pronounced like the English "jean". It is feminine in this case because it is una bebida gaseosa, just like una Pilsen or una Imperial, the two most popular beers in Costa Rica, are feminine because they are cervezas.
If you say cerveza de jengibre, the waitress probably won't understand you.
Pura Vida,
Thomas
