Some Cocktail Trivia:
The Margarita started as a legend in Acapulco in 1945 at a party hosted by Margarita Sames. She called it
simply "The Drink" combining Cointreau, Cuervo tequila and freshly squeezed lime juice, served chilled up or on the rocks.
Ever wondered how the 'cocktail' was named?
Betsy Flanagan, a barmaid in a tavern in Hall's Corner NY served 'Betsy's Bracers' to American
and French soldiers during the Revolutionary War. One day American soldiers stole some pheasants
from a nearby British farmer and a wild party was had. Betsy decorated her drinks with the
bird's tail feathers and while drinking the soldiers gave a toast. ''Here's to the divine liquor which
is as delicious to the palate as the cock's tail is to the eye''. To which one French soldier replied,
''Vive le cocktail'' - or so the story goes! |
