Cocktail, the name representing mixed drinks, originated from when, and there are many legends. One of the most interesting sayings is that it was a wine that raised a glass to the rooster who had the most tail left after fighting in the cockfighting era.

It is also said that the name of this wine originated in England and was once used to raise cockfighting.

In fact, cocktails originated from 1776, a pub decorated with chicken tail feathers in Ellmers, new york. One day, when all kinds of wine in this pub were almost sold out, some officers came in to buy some wine. Betsy Flanagan, a waitress, poured all the remaining wine into a large container and pulled a hair from a rooster to hold the wine. The officers looked at the color of the wine and couldn't tell what it tasted like, so they asked Becky, who casually replied, "This is a cocktail!" " Hearing this, an officer happily raised his glass and shouted, "Long live cocktails!" "Since then, it has been called" cocktail ".
