Pirates loved booze

Okay, I think most of us figured that pirates loved to hit the bottle. But, did you know that pirates were also pretty decent mixologists? In the 1600s, the British Navy was given a ration of 5 shots of rum a day. When pirates got a hold of said rum, they would throw it into a barrel with beer, lemons, and sugar. The resulting mixture was a favourite among pirates. The lemon, in fact, was said to help prevent scurvy.
