The Navy Grog cocktail is a delicious tropical drink that dates back to the early days of naval exploration. Rumuor has it that the original Grog was created to help sailors fight scurvy on long sea voyages, but the Navy Grog recipe that we enjoy today was created during the height of Tiki culture and was served at Donn Beachcomber bars across California. Made with three types of rum, fresh citrus, honey syrup, and soda, it’s a potent drink. Be careful not to drink them like sailors. They’re best enjoyed as slow sippers on balmy evenings with good friends.
