Pink Gin

The Pink Gin was one the favorite of the British Royal Navy in the 19th century as bitters worked its magic curing everything of sickness to indigestion.

In 1826, Henry Workshop who was a ship surgeon in the Royal Navy discovered Angostura Bitters created by Johann Siegert two years earlier.

By the 1870s, gin was becoming increasingly popular and many of the finer establishments in England were serving Pink Gins.

Eventually, you can also drink it in a highball topped up with soda water.
