Cocktail
Definition
A cocktail is an alcoholic mixed drink that contains three or more ingredients—at least one of the ingredients must be a spirit, one sweet/sugary and one sour/bitter.
History
The exact origins of the cocktail remain contested. During the second half of 18th century there is already a story that says that cocktail showed up during America independence, however the origin of cocktail is an unsolved mystery.
The first published reference to the cocktail appears in the Farmer's (Amherst, New Hampshire, April 28, 1803).
There are as many stories behind the origin of the name cocktail as there are behind the creation of the first Margarita or the Martini. As always, some are preposterous, some believable and who knows, one may be the truth. None the less, the stories are interesting.
其一是:美国独立战争时,一群军官涌入一家酒吧要喝酒,但当时店内酒已售完,所以老板娘临时将各种剩酒混在一起,并随手拔了一根鸡尾毛放在杯中当装饰军官喝后齐口称赞从此“鸡 尾酒”的美名不胫而走 。
其二是:一片因风飞来的鸡尾毛落入了大家正在喝的酒杯中的酒精混合饮料,于是从此这一类饮料为“鸡尾酒”。
其三是:据说当时有家富人请了个厨师,此人非常喜欢偷酒喝,为了不让主人察觉,他把每一种酒都偷一点,所以他所喝的酒是由各式各样的酒混合而成的,不料这样的酒别有风味,从此便流行起来。因为这位厨师的屁股特别翘,有如鸡尾一样,所以大家就称他喝的酒为“鸡尾酒”。
