I don't know if you have heard of a kind of water, called "Dutch water", this kind of water in China is now rarely heard of, but a hundred years ago, it was very famous, and the people who drank it were all older generations, at least at the grandfather level. So what is the "Dutch water" that appears in the mouths of the older generation? It's a drink that was once as famous as Coca-Cola.
In the 1930s and 1940s, many places in the south were selling a pale green drink called "Dutch water", which is actually under the name of "Dutch water", in fact, this is a kind of soda imported from the Netherlands, which was first introduced in the late Qing Dynasty, mainly brought by the Dutch, so it is called Dutch water, as for what its own name is, it is not known.
At that time, because this water was an imported soda, it was very famous in China. However, it was also drunk by rich people, and it was very famous in Hong Kong, Shanghai and other places, but there were also many cottages at that time.
Whatever it is, there is an original source, Dutch water is no exception, it is the following kind, with a cork to stuff the bottle, the color is green, in fact, is a mint drink,
At that time, its reputation was comparable to Coca-Cola, even more famous than Coke, and the Dutch water in the mouth of the older generation at that time was the meaning of soda, just like many parents now call fried chicken KFC, whether you are McDonald's or Pizza Hut.
However, in the end, because there were too many fakes, people drank bad stomachs, but there was no channel to explain, and finally "three people became tigers" and no one bought it. After reading this, I don't know what the drink that everyone loved to drink when they were young? Xiaobian is very coke, what about you?
