History of the Grog

Old Grog (eng.Old Grog) - this nickname was given to the Vice-Admiral of the British Navy Edward Vernon (1684-1757) for his habit of never getting out of his cloak (called in English a grogam cloak). In those distant times, the daily ration of sailors included a mandatory portion, which is why they went ashore waddling. To stop drunkenness and disciplinary violations, Vice-Admiral Vernon ordered to dilute rum with water - cold or hot, depending on the season. The hot version was more to the sailors' liking. This is how grog appeared, which began its triumphant march not only at sea, but also on land. By the way: Rum was included in the daily ration of sailors of the Royal Navy until this rule was abolished on July 31, 1970. And what warming recipes do you know?
