Best database choice for my Cordova application

I am working on an Cordova application (for Android and iPhone) which requires to store offline actions and then sync those actions to server when internet becomes available. Actually I am new to Cordova (PhoneGap). I am using JQuery and AngularJS for performing other actions. Now my question is which would be the best Database choice in my case?

I know about LocalStorage but that will not meet my needs. Second one is WebSQL. I have seen its specification page. They are no longer maintaining this framework. IndexedDB I guess is only for Windows phone and Blackberry phones. There may be other big ones that I don't know. So I need your suggestions for possible options.

I have two database for you. First one is I'm using for almost over a year. Didn't face any issue. Brodysoft SQL wrapper plugin It's use is just like web sql.

function onDeviceReady() {
  var db = window.sqlitePlugin.openDatabase({name: "my.db"});
  // ...
}

I didn't use the second one but saw the reference in SO. Read that it's very efficient. HTML5SQL

$.get('Setup-Tables.SQL',function(sqlStatements){
    html5sql.process(
        //This is the text data from the SQL file you retrieved
        sqlStatements,
        function(){
            // After all statements are processed this function
            //   will be called.
        },
        function(error){
            // Handle any errors here
        }
    );
});

Between this two choice has to be yours.

I can suggest to use MongoDB. MongoDB is a document database that provides high performance, high availability, and easy scalability. A database holds a set of collections. A collection holds a set of documents. A document is a set of key-value pairs (JSON object).
