The Cocktail Culture
The mere mention of the word conjures up an image of refinement,
as it has during the 200 year history of cocktails. Today, the word
cocktail refers to a mixed drink usually spirits or liqueurs, sometimes
prepared with a variety of fruit juices or carbonated mixers.
Ironically, cocktails are traditionally served either before dinner to
make you hungrier or after dinner, to make you more full. |
