Perfect for summer, + great for Christmas logs – Our go-to refreshing drink in hot weather. We also do 'Adult Christmas' logs - Gingernut biscuits dipped in Buderim Ginger Refresher and Boronia, then covered in Whipped Cream, sandwiched together with more whipped cream on top and sides, then a Flake crumbled over it. A great gift for neighbours and friends. Show details

Very disappointed – That’s one hell of a sugar hit. Way, too sweet – 33.3 g of sugar. Really? Show details

The low sugar version is much better – I loved the reduced sugar ginger cordial, but there is no place to review it here. When I went to buy more it was completely out of stock, so I tried the regular one. Unfortunately it is too sugary, like drinking syrup. The reduced sugar one was great, not like a regular cordial but light and healthful. BTW, avoid Belvoir Park ginger cordial - it contains chilli, and is undrinkable. I had to pour it down the sink. Show details

Bottle opening issue – I would love to try it, as I have bought it, but how do I open it? Obviously it's child proof.

Fantastic product if you can open it – I love this product - delicious mixed with soda water for a refreshing beverage. I have been a consumer for several years and recently on 2 occasions have found there is packaging fault with the screw top lid - its impossible to open! The first time I got it open by sawing it with have a sereated edge knife - however the second time to no avail -… Read more

I will take it back to Coles for refund or replacement and hope they send it back to you so you can review your packaging. It's an excellent product - I hope you can resolve the packaging issue.

Love this Refresher at this price – Was drinking Rochester Dark Ginger 725ml but at $24 a bottle very expensive The Buderim Ginger Refresher 750ml has less Energy and Sugar and is only let down by the 8mg per 100ml of sodium compared to <1g. However these products are uncomparable when you consider one is $24 and the other is $3.50. This is a great product that I will be using from now on. Well done Buderim.

I would certainly like to enjoy This ginger cordial – However at 74 I find it extremely difficult to open the bottle. I have used carving knives to go around the the bottle, This is not the first time but on a number of times...and with a number of products...One finds unless you have the hands and strength of Sampson. one is not going to taste the liquid in this bottle....Hope you can find a solution the the problem.

Don Draper – Ginger is medicinal. This cordial is good if you have a friend that can't stop throwing up. It is also good if an ear crystal has dislodged and you are experiencing vertigo. It is ok for prawn finger and not great for unsightly rashes. The graphic design on the bottle is misleading because it doesn't tell you any of this stuff. Buderim Ginger… Read more

Refresher is pretty sugary. I wanted to quit sugar and I made a green smoothie with kale in it but then I got to thinking about how refreshing ginger cordial is after I've spent a summer morning working on the gt coupe.

Boycotting Halal and Kosher? – I was just looking for a review on ginger beer and came across these ridiculous comments about Halal certification. Are these people boycotting both Kosher and Halal equally? Or are they just bigots? Let's hope they go back to their own countries and leave the land for the people that have always respected it as white man was never welcome here in the first place.

Halal certified product – I like the taste, but abhor the concept of halal certification where it applies to Australian food products. Will not purchase the product on this basis.

Lovely summer treat! Refreshing and tasty too – Picked this from Coles after seeing it in Coles Christmas special recipe collection. Loved the taste of refreshing real ginger, there are not sediments unlike traditional ginger drinks. Tastes equally good with both soda water and plain water. I muddle small wedge of lemon and few mint leaves for a twist occasionally. Ideal hot summer months. Very… Read more

tasty and a 750 ml bottle makes upto 4 litres, pretty inexpensive summer treat! Love the ginger I found it to be a bit too sweet to my taste. I usually buy budaberg diet ginger beer and perhaps comparing a diet drink to a cordial is unfair.

My love affair with Buderim Ginger Refresher – I've tried "the others" however they don't come near Buderim! I just love it & drink nothing else - except the occasional glass of water. I use at least 1 bottle/week, with Sparkling Mineral Water. I've been drinking it now for about 10 years & will continue to do so forever I'd say! I've read some of the other reviews & hadn't thought about… Read more ·  1

using it in cooking. That opens up a whole new area for me to explore! A genuine ginger flavour, not too sweet. A little expensive, however I still continue to buy it.
