A 105-year-old New Jersey woman who survived both the 1918 flu pandemic and a bout with the coronavirus attributed her longevity to her daily ritual of eating nine raisins soaked in gin.
“Fill a jar. Nine raisins a day after it sits for nine days,” Lucia DeClerck told The New York Times.
Gin-soaked raisins are not among the recommended Centers for Disease Control and Prevention treatments for the virus.
