Origin

Mid 19th century: French, 'coarse grain' (see also grogram).

grog from mid 18th century:
This word for alcoholic drink is said to be from Old Grog, the reputed nickname (given to him because of his grogram cloak) of Admiral Vernon (1684–1757): in 1740 he first ordered diluted rum to be served out to sailors instead of the traditional neat rum. Grogram (mid 16th century) was a heavy fabric which got its name from French gros grain ‘course grain’, also found in the name of the lighter silk fabric grosgrain (mid 19th century).
