You might be surprised. Ernest Hemingway, an avid drinker, coined the term "lime" so he could distinguish it from other types of citrus in the Daiquiri, one of his favorite drinks. He also popularized the term Lost Generation, generally regarded as the first generational cohort with a name, although the term was originally coined by Gertrude Stein.
Hemingway also took a phrase from the Spanish bull fighting rings, "la hora de la verdad" and rendered it into English "The moment of truth." This immediately became a cliche in all kinds of journalism, especially sports reporting "They've only got 5 minutes left and they are down by 3, so this is the moment of truth."
