3000 year old Grog

Or happiness in a cup as I like to think of it. Anyway, 3000 year old grog from the nordic realms.
From northwest Denmark, circa 1500–1300 BC, to the Swedish island of Gotland as late as the first century AD, Nordic peoples were imbibing an alcoholic “grog” or extreme hybrid beverage rich in local ingredients, including honey, bog cranberry, lingonberry, bog myrtle, yarrow, juniper, birch tree resin, and cereals including wheat, barley and/or rye—and sometimes, grape wine imported from southern or central Europe.
Drink that!!! Talk about a magical brew. No wonder they went to war a lot.
