Chota, Peg & Lime, the story……
Chota Peg & Lime or a little shot with lime has roots that trace all the way back to the 1600s, from colonial India to the seven seas and the beautiful eastern lands of Persia and Babylonia.
The first step in the story comes out of colonial India in the 1600s, when the soldiers of the British East India Company were issued with tonic water, as it had quinine in it to combat malaria, due to the bitter taste of the quinine these soldiers started to mix in fruits and sugar with this and finally their gin rations. When asking for the gin to be added it was always in a small amount roughly the same size as a shot in modern terms and this was known as a Chota peg as the peg was the name of the shot glass used to measure it out.
From Persia and Babylonia came limes transported by sea all over the world, these were issued to British East India Company sailors to combat scurvy as a daily ration and like all good sailors to combat the sour taste, they added a little rum to the lime in a peg or shot.
