History of National Cocktail Day!!!


Today march 24th, celebrate all of your favorite cocktails. Celebrate National Cocktail Day by indulging in all your favorite post-work beverage options. This is the day for you if you enjoy fruity drinks, blended or on the rocks. Celebrate the lemon, lime, bitters, liquors, and liqueurs that make your favorite drinks the greatest in your bartender book—mocktails, virgins, or the real deal. A spirit, or mixture of spirits, is present in a cocktail. Although they are not the same thing as cocktails, beer cocktails are made by mixing beer with distilled spirits. The same holds true with wine.

Jace Shoemaker-Galloway, a holidaymaker, thought of National Cocktail Day as a lighthearted way to honor a delectable beverage. Generally, a cocktail's components were water, sugar, bitters, and spirits. Some modern mixed drinks, such the Manhattan, Sazerac, and Old Fashioned Whiskey cocktails, continue to honor this custom. It's a frequent misperception that America invented drinks. This is true to some extent, although the origin of cocktails was inspired by british punches from the eighteenth century. british punches were big bowls of liquor spiced with spices, fruit juice, and other ingredients.

While the precise origin of cocktails is unknown, their popularity has spread over the world. All that is known is that by the 1860s, it started to gain traction. Ironically, cocktail popularity surged after alcohol was banned in the united states from 1920 to 1933. Speakeasies began serving inferior alcohol since it was easier to produce illegally. They then started adding flavorings like fruit juice, honey, and other ingredients to cover up the bad taste of the booze, which made it easier for customers to down it faster, which was important in case of a raid.
