Navy grog
The Navy grog was originally nothing more than rum diluted in water. Later, the British Royal Navy introduced lime juice in the sailors' diet, which gave rise to the name of Limeys, used by the Americans to refer to the English, perhaps due to their taste for grog with lime juice. What is certain is that even the old sea wolves would approve of this beautiful drink.
