Our little anecdote in the Gin Fizz

This cocktail was created around the mid-18th century in England by Admiral Nerson. The goal was to find a drink to fight against scurvy, a disease present at the time especially among British sailors and triggered by a vitamin C deficiency.

Admiral Nerson thus had the idea of ​​mixing lemon, known for its high vitamin C content, with gin, known for its ability to retain vitamin C. Seduced by the effectiveness of this drink against the disease, British sailors kept consuming it but add sugar and sparkling water to make it fresher and lighter in the mouth, creating Gin Fizz.
