History of Cocktails And How It Took Over The World
Wine, beer, and spirits are just a few examples of alcohol, but what makes anything a cocktail? A cocktail is a beverage that, in its most basic form, combines a number of components, at least one of which is alcoholic, into a single finished beverage. The simplest cocktails include a small number of ingredients, whilst more complex ones can have up to six or seven. According to certain definitions, a cocktail needs both fruit juice and a spirit. Others define a cocktail as containing a sugar, a bitter, and a spirit.
