A tavern keeper by the name, Betsy Flanagan served Frenchsoldiers drinks garnished with feathers she plucked from aneighbours rooster. The soldiers toasted her by shouting ´Vive lecocktailµ.
There is also a French word ¶coquetier· which referred to a specialkind of eggcup. Such eggcups were used by Antoine Peychaud inhis New Orleans pharmacy to serve a ¶medicinal· mixture ofCognac, water, bitters and absinthe. This drink later became
known as the Sazerac, named for the brand of Cognac he used.
There is another French word ¶coquetel·, meaning a mixed drink.This last story, sadly the least dramatic, is probably the mostlikely, especially given the New Orleans influence on early
recipes.

Many different countries have contributed much to the history of thecocktail, however its undisputed home is America. The first true recipesdate from the beginning of the C19th, often from the southern states.
In 1832 a new law was passed that allowed inns to serve alcoholwithout having rooms for lease. This gave birth to the bar industry as we
know it.
The technologies of refrigeration, carbonation, and ice production wereall developed around this time.
As were concepts of service standards, and the establishment of
standard recipes and drinks preparation techniques.
All this was fired by the economic boom at the time.
This led to the creation and classification of many of what are nowrevered as the classic cocktail recipes: the Martini, the Manhattan, the
Sour, the Fizz, the Julep, and the Old Fashioned, amongst many others.

Jerry Thomas in the Occidental Hotel, San Francisco for a man onhis way to Martinez (who paid with a gold nugget)
The original recipe was most likely made in the 1880s· using sweetOld Tom-style gin. It has been described as ¶a Manhattan,substituting gin for whiskey·

Molecular Mixology is the term applied to the
process of creating cocktails using the scientific
equipment and techniques of molecular
gastronomy. These methods enable the
creation of greater intensities and varieties of
flavour and different ways of presenting drinks,
for example using gels, powders, foams,
atomised sprays etc., as well as affecting the
appearance of the cocktail
The equipment used in molecular mixology can
range from comparatively simple items such asblowtorches to more specialised items such as
the sous-vide, a device for combining and
infusing ingredients in a vacuum and thus
preserving their flavours and enhancing the
finished product.
These infusions allow unexpected
combinations of flavours in cocktails, including
flavourings from non-edible substances, such
as tobacco and leather (found in the Smoked
Old Fashioned cocktail and perfume (as in the
Champagne No.5)
