Then you can check out some related blogs about your favorite drinks, drink recipes, pairings, alcohol quizzes, fun facts, and more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:35px\">National Cocktail Day is Today!<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>We can all thank holidaymaker Jace Shoemaker-Galloway for creating National Cocktail Day. It is basically a day to appreciate and enjoy your favorite cocktails and alcoholic drinks! So go on, enjoy them! Fun Fact, the most popular cocktail drink in the United States is the Margarita! &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-heading\">Origin of Cocktails in the United States<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before prohibition, the term cocktail wasn\u2019t used a lot. There was mention of it in an 1803 edition magazine called <em>The Famer\u2019s Cabinet<\/em>, and then again in a New York magazine in 1806. In 1917, a Missourian by the name of Clara Bell Walsh coined the phrase, <em>cocktail party<\/em>, after inviting over a large crowd of guests for drinks at noon and calling it so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But once alcohol became illegal, cocktail concoctions were popping up all over the place. Back then, cocktails were traditionally made with a combination of spirits, sugar, bitters, and water. Today, the Manhattan, Sazerac, and Old Fashioned still carry on this traditional recipe base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-heading\">\ud83c\udf79\ud83c\udf79 Links You Will
