这个网站是我自 1980 年以来收集的所有鸡尾酒
鸡尾酒历史
没有人知道鸡尾酒开始的确切日期,但通过考古发现,假设人类将各种成分混合在一起为自己创造美味的饮料已有 10,000 年的历史,因为那是国内农业开始的时候——如果你相信失落的大陆然后它可以追溯到更远。蜂蜜酒(蜂蜜制成)、麦酒(啤酒)和葡萄酒(水果制成)是古代文明中最常见的酒精饮料,因此还假设这些成分混合在一起制成蜂蜜味饮料。此外,可以想象加入香草和香料以增加风味,有时可能会使用浸泡过的药草。
社交饮酒已经以某种形式成为每种文化的一部分,随着时间的推移,人们开始旅行(出于各种原因)并需要住所,因此沿途简陋的旅馆提供临时住所、食物和饮料——现代酒店提供的基本设施相同今天。公共房屋(酒吧)建在城镇中,充当“信息中心”,您可以在这里了解时事、八卦、抱怨天气、调情、讲故事,当然还有喝酒。数百年来,情况几乎保持不变。
关于“鸡尾酒”这个词的来源,有很多理论。其中包括一位阿兹特克公主,一位称最喜欢的饮料为 cockwine的古罗马医生,一个新奥尔良法国鸡蛋杯,实际上是用一整只公鸡和麦酒制成的 Cock Ale Punch (ick!),一种用于没有精神的人的姜根栓剂马,还有一个酒馆老板,他把公鸡尾毛放在士兵的饮料里(鸡尾)。
已知第一个提到亚洲精神“arrack”的是1200年代的旅行商人。在 1300 年代,创造了“aqua vitae”(“生命之水”)这个词,并且在 1400 年代生产了雅文邑和苏格兰威士忌。但是,在 1500 年代,第一次记录将烈酒(早期的朗姆酒)与其他三种成分混合在一起,是为生病的水手准备的。在 1600 年代和 1800 年代之间,公共饮料是装在大碗里的——所有人都用杯子。这些杯子和碗产生了我们今天所知道的个人大小的鸡尾酒。

要知道的最重要的事情
关于鸡尾酒
没有人知道是谁发明了这种鸡尾酒,但人们一致认为,在 1600 年代,公共批次装在潘趣酒碗中,然后用杯子喝掉,这催生了我们今天所知道的个人鸡尾酒。关于“鸡尾酒”这个词的起源有很多理论。到今天为止,它已缩小到两个。一个来自 1700 年代的马贸易行业,另一个来自基于真人的虚构角色,但都没有得到证实。
迄今为止,“鸡尾酒”一词的第一个印刷形式出现在 1798 年。与饮料有关的单词于 1803 年首次印刷,第一个印刷定义是在 1806 年。
第一本已知的英国饮料收据(食谱)书于 1827 年出版。第一本已知的美国鸡尾酒配方书于 1862 年出版。
据我们所知,薄荷朱利酒是美国的第一款鸡尾酒。
在 1920 年代之前,在美国,高档的白人男性在高档轿车和酒吧里喝高档鸡尾酒,他们通常 有一个名为“女士酒吧”的侧厅供着名女性使用。 唯一允许进入主酒吧的女性是女士和妓女。 普通乔在酒吧或家里喝啤酒、葡萄酒、威士忌和苹果酒。
鸡尾酒的第一个黄金时代是在 1860 年到 1919 年之间,而鸡尾酒的第二个黄金时代的种子是在千年左右播下的。
马提尼是最具标志性的鸡尾酒,也是鸡尾酒文化的象征。
美国禁酒令的废除、女性在大多数酒吧的社交自由以及好莱坞技术(有声电影)为 1930 年代和 1960 年代之间的鸡尾酒带来了魅力。
自 2002 年以来,每年 7 月都会在新奥尔良举办世界上最大的鸡尾酒节,鸡尾酒的故事。

鸡尾酒时间表
1500s
如果您拥有一家酒吧、啤酒屋、小酒馆或旅馆,那么您可能正在种植自己的食物和饮料来服务客人。除了有土地用于花园之外,您还需要照料动物,为旅行者提供马厩(我们今天称它们为停车场),有一个生产酒精饮料的区域,并且有足够的文化来存放书籍、支付账单、管理帮助,并收取款项。酒馆地板通常由沙子制成,在酒吧区周围通常有一个闸门(金属垂直关闭门)。多任务晚餐时,厨房里的狗经常被放在一个转盘里——狗会在转盘里走,慢慢地把烤肉放在火上。
啤酒屋、酒馆、小酒馆和旅馆的名称包括 Beverley Arms、Black Lion、Boar's Head、Bull Long Medford、Crown Sarre、King's Head、Crane Inn、Devil's Tavern、George、The Lion、The Prospect of Whitby、the白马和叶奥尔德米特。
听到的饮酒词有“aled up”、“befuddled”、“bizzled”、 “drinking deep”、“戴上大麦帽”、“有不止一个可以容纳”、“狮子醉了”、“麦芽在饭菜上”, ” “吵闹”,“吞下了酒馆令牌”,“打碎了”,“剃光了”, “喝了起来”,“被洗了”和“被削了”。
1500 年代创建的新品牌和烈酒包括 aguardiente de caña(朗姆酒)、Bénédictine、白兰地、cachaça、Disarrono、jenever、kummel、mezcal、pisco 和苏格兰威士忌。

1600年代
我们很清楚小酒馆和酒吧的样子,因为荷兰画家扬·斯蒂恩(Jan Steen)绘制了详细的日常生活画作。他与饮酒有关的画作包括酒馆里的王子节(1660 年;他在画中画了自己)、酒馆花园(1660 年)、酒馆里(1660 年)、饮酒者(1660 年)、欢乐派对(1660 年)、农民之前旅馆(1653),离开酒馆(日期未知),露台上的快乐公司(1670)和酒馆场景(1670)。在 Steen 的画作中看到的东西是水罐、瓶子、容器(有些是玻璃制成的)、乐谱、乐器、调情、火、食物、笑声、游戏、赌博、动物、儿童、玩具、混乱、男人抓女人、吸烟、头骨、桶和笼子里的鸟。减去孩子和动物,这几乎是现代酒吧中所见的。我个人最喜欢的画作是《老歌如歌,少年如歌》 。
在 1600 年代初期,punch(paunch,一个印度语单词,意思是“五”)在往返印度的英国水手和香料商人中流行起来。在回家的途中,他们会用五种成分制作大碗潘趣酒,包括烈酒、柠檬、糖、水和香料。拳拳传播到英国的上层阶级,很快就被带到了新世界(美国)。上流社会拥有银制的碗、杯子和长柄勺,伦敦中央刑事法院的记录记录了这些物品被盗的许多事件——大多数时候,拳头还在碗里!
对于在新世界寻求新生活的朝圣者来说,生活是艰难地开拓一片未知的土地,同时依靠英国船只提供物资。在大多数情况下,定居者处于生存模式,但不知何故,他们找到了时间和资源来开设不是一家而是两家朗姆酒酿酒厂。朗姆酒是早期美国的资金来源。
一些啤酒屋、酒馆、小酒馆和旅馆的名称包括:Bear at Bridge-foot、Bull and Bush、Bull and Gate、 Grapes、Green Dragon Tavern、Hatchet Inn、the Anchor、the Plough、the Red Lion、the Seven Stars、Three修女和特拉法加酒馆。

1700年代
殖民时期的美国正在安家落户。到 1700 年,人口达到 275,000 人(波士顿和纽约市的人口最多)。 1700 年,殖民地还有 140 多家朗姆酒厂。到本世纪末,人口达到530万,其中100万为非洲裔。
在本世纪,殖民者努力摆脱英国。旧国家不想放松的例子包括糖蜜法(对朗姆酒征税)、羊毛法、铁法、货币法、糖法(对朗姆酒征税)、印花税法、波士顿大屠杀和波士顿倾茶事件。这一切都导致了美国革命(1775-1783)。脱离英国后,一种名为 Sling 的饮品开始流行起来。它只是用您选择的烈酒、糖和水制成的。后来,加入一两滴苦味,制成苦味吊索,被认为是早上的好饮料。这些是老式的确切成分。
1776 年美国独立宣言的签署与马德拉岛共同庆祝。本杰明富兰克林写了一本饮酒字典,发明了双光眼镜,并发现了电。詹姆斯·哈格里夫斯发明了纺车,美国威士忌酒厂开始兴起,发明了三明治,为了好玩,热气球于 1782 年首次飞行。在池塘的另一边,工业革命正在引领比赛在纺织生产、蒸汽动力和炼铁领域,但在杜松子酒成瘾的斗争中输了。这也是苦艾酒被发现的世纪。
从 1700 年代中期开始,通常在小酒馆中设立邮政服务部门。啤酒屋、酒馆、小酒馆和旅馆的一些名称包括甲壳虫和楔子、手铃小酒馆、城市小酒馆、弗朗西斯小酒馆、让·拉菲特的铁匠铺、杰索普的小酒馆、雄鹿和猎犬、鹰、羔羊、脏鸭、绿人、王冠、旧船、Publik House、Prospect of Whitby、Wiggin's Tavern、Blue Bell Inn 和 O'Malley's Pub。
在 1700 年代听到的饮酒词太多了,因为本杰明·富兰克林在 1737 年写了一本烛光书,题为《饮酒者词典》,其中列出了 200 多个饮酒词。其中一些和其他包括“沉迷”、“去过巴巴多斯”、“cockadoodled”、“cherry merry”、“cracked”、“cranked”、“剪辑国王的英语”、“头晕目眩”、“喝得像一条鱼”、“醉得像独轮车”、 “不怕人”、“糊涂”、“像山羊一样饱”、“有鼻涕”、“昏昏沉沉”、“喝得开心”、“满头蜜蜂” 、”“在高处”、“顶起”、“快活”、“喝得酩酊大醉”、“把它舔起来”、“失去了方向舵”、“烂醉如泥”、“被拧死了”、“醉醺醺的”、“醉醺醺的” ”和“炖”。

1732
美国第一个钓鱼俱乐部——也是今天最古老的连续俱乐部——被称为“Schuylkill 的殖民地”(今天它被称为宾夕法尼亚州的 Schuylkill 渔业公司)。俱乐部的目标是社交、钓鱼、吃喝。著名的“鱼屋潘趣酒”就是用朗姆酒、桃白兰地、柠檬、糖和水混合而成的。乔治华盛顿总统是一名获奖成员。

12 月 4 日,伦敦中央刑事法院提到了阿拉克拳:“夫人。大约凌晨 2 点,霍尔科姆坐马车到我家门口:我带他们上了两对楼梯,他们有一碗——只是一碗——阿拉克潘趣酒,一瓶酒,和三个果冻。”
1735
伦敦中央刑事法院再次提到阿拉克潘趣酒:“他让我喝一杯潘趣酒,所以我进去了,他和我喝了四五碗阿拉克潘趣酒,到了 20 年代。和三品脱酒。”

伦敦中央刑事法院的文件太多了,不胜枚举;当时几乎所有可用的酒精都被提及。在oldbaileyonline.org在线查看它们。最令人震惊和最悲伤的文件显示了英格兰对杜松子酒上瘾的程度。 1734 年 2 月 27 日,一位母亲杀死了她两岁的女婴,以便她可以卖掉自己的衣服来购买杜松子酒。
1736
英国通过了杜松子酒法案,以遏制杜松子酒的消费。
1740
grog是第一个代基里酒吗? 8 月 21 日,55 岁的英国皇家海军中将爱德华·弗农 (Edward Vernon) 发布命令,每天的朗姆酒配给应与一夸脱水、半品脱朗姆酒、酸橙汁和糖混合在值班中尉在场的情况下,甲板上的一个凿沉的枪托。 (弗农的绰号是“老酒”,因为他会在甲板上穿防水斗篷,这是由格格布制成的。水手们将这种饮料命名为“格罗格”。)嗯,格格似乎与经典代基里酒的成分相同——只是没有冰。在你拿出手机和谷歌搜索“scuttled butt”之前,它相当于现代办公室的饮水机,但由水手聚集的木桶(桶)制成。在顶部切了一个洞,以便为每个人提供熟食。

Anistatia Miller 和 Jared Brown 发现了“鸡尾酒”这个词的最新记录。 3 月 16 日星期五,英国伦敦的《晨报和公报》报道说,一位酒吧老板中了彩票并清偿了所有顾客的债务:
“唐宁街的一个税吏分得了 20,000 升。奖,擦掉他所有的分数,高兴得不得了:这是对他邻居的谦虚模仿,当他在州彩票中中奖时,他不仅擦掉了,而且还和他的老顾客一起打破了分数,并完全忘记了他们。”四天后,也就是 3 月 20 日,星期二,客户的债务在同一份报纸上公布。 “鸡尾酒”一词出现:
“先生。皮特,
“L'huile de Venus”的两首小诗
同上,“perfeit amour”之一
同上,“鸡尾”(俗称姜)
受人尊敬的烈酒和饮料历史学家大卫·旺德里奇认为,“鸡尾酒”一词的使用(此时)来自马匹贸易。他了解到,要使您要出售的老马看起来活泼,可以使用一大块生姜(可能是去皮的)作为栓剂,可以翘起马的尾巴。
鸡尾酒约翰柯林斯是在伦敦发明的。
1800年代
鸡尾酒和鸡尾酒制作在 1800 年代以明亮的白色聚光灯登上舞台,美国调酒师是全世界的鸡尾酒明星。他们穿着压制的夹克,钻石领带夹,有领的衬衫;基本上,他们穿着得体。第一本食谱书出版,池塘冰(以及后来的人造冰)的出现改变了游戏规则,鸡尾酒的黄金时代闪耀着迄今为止最耀眼的光芒。酒保的职位——尽管是蓝领——被视为工人阶级的贵族。在那个年代,你必须成为调酒师学徒几年才能成为调酒师。一位名人调酒师 Jerry Thomas 带着一套纯银酒吧工具环游世界,并于 1862 年出版了第一本已知的美国鸡尾酒食谱书, Bar-Tender 指南,如何混合饮料,或 Bon-Vivant 的伴侣。
本世纪开始时美国人口约为 500 万,到 1899 年令人难以置信地增加到惊人的 7000 万。在此期间发生了许多进步,为下个世纪奠定了基础。这包括煤气灯、缝纫机、电报、摩尔斯电码、自行车、打字机、邮购目录、可口可乐、火柴盒和冰块配送。而且,和往常一样,一开始只有富人才能享受这些现代发明。
这些时代带来了新的技术进步的文明行为。在高档酒吧里,一个显赫的白人可以点一份鞋匠、地壳、翻转、熟酒、香槟鸡尾酒、曼哈顿、地震、马丁内斯、老式、冰雹、罗伯·罗伊、汤姆和杰瑞、雪风暴、罗菲尼亚克、大开眼界、Ramos Gin Fizz、Sazerac、Santa Cruz Punch、smash、Stone-Fence、sour、toddy 或 Tom Collins。
啤酒屋、小酒馆、沙龙和酒吧的一些名称包括 Bull and Mouth、 Bush Tavern、Chapter House、Crystal Palace Saloon、Golden Cross、Grove House Tavern、Hustler's Tavern、Jack's Elixir Bar、Knickerbocker Saloon、Iron Door Saloon、McSorley's Old Ale House、Old Absinthe House、Pete's Tavern、the Bucket of Blood、Cock Tavern、The Imperial Cabinet、Stag Saloon、Village Tavern、Tujague's、Occidental 和 White Horse Tavern。
在 1800 年代听到的饮酒词包括“高于标准”、“有点上”、“小说的几章”、“一杯太多”、“与约翰·巴利康的约会”、“一滴太多” “有点起泡”、“公共场合一团糟”、“头顶刺痛”、“与地板和平相处”、“透过玻璃看”、“撞到酱汁”、“看不见”梯子上的一个洞”、 “塞住了”、“对世界死了”、“醉了”、“像巴克斯一样醉”、“像四十只比山羊一样醉”、“感觉光荣”、“火了”、“雾驱动器” ,”“满满的”,“轧花”,“抬起小指”,“郁郁葱葱”,“月光”,“从最深处”,“润湿粘土”,“翻转和c”,“痰-切刀,”“阁楼上的一块面包和奶酪”,“抛光”,“在喉咙里熄灭火花”,“晃动”,“发臭”,“浸泡”,“被弄脏”,“坦克”,“润湿”口哨”、“头晕目眩”和“从一个人的头骨中敲出”。

4 月 28 日,新罕布什尔州的报纸《农民内阁》中出现了第一个已知的美国人使用“鸡尾酒”一词作为饮料的记录:
“喝了一杯鸡尾酒——对头脑很好。 . .打电话给医生。发现伯纳姆——他看起来很聪明——又喝了一杯鸡尾酒。”
1806
5 月 6 日,美国纽约的 The Balance and Columbian Repository (No. 18 Vol. V) 出现了第二次使用“鸡尾酒”一词作为饮料的美国人:
“朗姆酒!朗姆酒!朗姆酒!
据推测,这种珍贵的酒的价格很快就会在克拉弗拉克盛行,因为某个候选人在他的损益账上记下了以下项目:——
损失。 720 杯朗姆酒,17 杯白兰地,32 杯杜松子酒,411 杯苦酒,25 杯。鸡尾酒
我的选举。
获得。没有。”
在纽约的克拉弗拉克举行了一场选举,(在那个时代)试图用免费的酒来赢得选票是很常见的。失败者在当地的这家报纸上发表了他的得失。翻译 25 做。 = 25 美元和 25 美元 = 2017 年的 600 美元。
7 天后,该报 28 岁的编辑、纽约哥伦比亚县的哈里·克罗斯威尔(Harry Croswell)于 5 月 13 日发布了迄今为止已知为酒精饮料的“鸡尾酒的第一个定义”。克罗斯威尔很少发表任何东西他说,但这次破例回答订阅者的问题。
订户写道:
“致天平的编辑。
先生,
我在你第 6 分钟的论文中观察到,在一个民主党候选人竞选立法机关席位的叙述中,标明在 Loss 的标题下,25 do。鸡尾酒。你愿意告诉我这种提神是什么意思吗?虽然对你来说是个陌生人,但我相信,从你的一般性格来看,你不会认为这个要求是无礼的。
我听说过论坛,化痰刀和雾司机,弄湿哨子,弄湿粘土,吹口哨,头上的刺,熄灭喉咙里的火花,翻转和c,但从未在我的一生,虽然已经活了很多年,但我以前有没有听说过公鸡尾巴。它是这个国家的一部分吗?还是它是一个较晚的发明?名称是否表达了饮料对身体特定部位的影响?或者这是否意味着服用魔药的民主党人变得颠倒了,他们的头在他们应该在的地方?我应该认为后者是真正的解决方案;但在我掌握所有信息之前,我不愿意最终确定。
革命初期,一位医生公开推荐用树上的苔藓代替茶。他在实验中发现,它比他认可的更具有刺激性。因此,他后来公开谴责了它。无论公鸡尾巴是什么,它只能在特定的时间和特定的体质中适当地管理。几年前,当民主党人为杰斐逊和克林顿大喊大叫时,其中一项民意调查在纽约市一个卖冰淇淋的地方举行。当时他们的性情异常的暴躁和胆怯。需要一些东西来冷却它们。现在,当他们陷入僵硬状态时,可能同样需要通过鸡尾来温暖和唤醒他们。
我希望你不会将我所说的任何内容解释为不尊重。我非常高兴地阅读了您的论文,并希望它的发行量最大。不管你是否回答我的询问,我仍然会留下来,
你的,

1900s–2000s
The Waldorf-Astoria in New York City had been open for seven years and set the standard for quality cocktails around the world. Drink making was appreciated and bartending was an art form. The hotel bar never published a cocktail book, but newspaperman and barfly Albert Crockett published The Old Waldorf-Astoria Bar Book in 1931 and 1935, which gives us a glimpse into that era. In the early 1900s, breweries owned most saloons, barkeeps made $15 a week ($400 in 2018 currency), and Sunday was the busiest day of the week. On January 16, 1920, the American Prohibition started, then ended December 5, 1933. The stock market crashed, media popularized cocktails, many brands were produced, discotheques increased sales, the drinking age changed twice, the AIDS epidemic hit, the stock market crashed again, and strict drinking and driving laws confused imbibers for several years—as a result of all this upheaval, the quality of cocktails sunk to an all-time low.
There were also five significant wars in the 1900s that affected imbibing Americans: World War I, World War II, Korean War, Vietnam War, and the Gulf War. The millennium brought the skankification of women in rap music videos, the increase of Cognac sales, half-dressed female bartenders dancing on bar tops, the Cosmopolitan and the Mojito became the most popular cocktails in the world, embarrassing Martini bars popped up—but—the most important development is that the cocktail culture renaissance seeds were planted.
More technology happened in during this time than 10,000 years combined. Some inventions in this century include electricity, the blender, the juicer, refrigeration, air-conditioning, the phonograph, radio, the eight-track player, the cassette tape, the compact disc, the boom box, the Walkman, DVDs, iTunes, the automobile, the airplane, the helicopter, the spaceship, motion picture theaters, talkies, drive-in theaters, television, VCRs, special-effects blockbusters, DVRs, online television, the camera, the video camera, neon lights, the zipper, stainless steel, canned beer, the telephone, the cellular phone, the smartphone, texting, the microwave, the calculator, robots, the ballpoint pen, medical discoveries, the fax machine, the pager, the computer, the Internet, Skype, the Hubble space telescope, and social media.
Names of bars, saloons, and clubs in the 1900s–2000s include Fox and Hound, Filthy McNasty’s, Fuzz & Firkin, Slug and Lettuce, Snooty Fox, Ciro’s, Chez Victor, the Ohio Club, the Ritz, Whiskey A Go-Go, Stork Club, the Tiki Lounge, VooDoo Lounge, the Palace Saloon, Sloppy Joe’s, Studio 54, Le Freak, Disco Inferno, Cabaret, Electric Cowboy, the Rainbow Room, the Starlight Room, the Velvet Tango Room, Coyote Ugly, Angel’s Share, Absinthe Brassiere & Bar, and Milk & Honey, PDT, Death & Co, Honeycut, Clover Club, Bourbon & Branch, Canon, Revel, Employees Only, the Violet Room, Three Dots and a Dash, and the Dead Rabbit.
Drinking words heard include “acting like a fool,” “baked,” “bashed,” “blasted,” “blitzed,” “blown away,” “bombed,” “bonkers,” “buzzed,” “canned,” “creamed,” “crocked,” “done,” “double vision,” “fried,” “gone,” “hammered,” “high,” “liquored up,” “lit,” “party animal,” “three sheets to the wind,” “shitfaced,” “slave to drink,” “stoned,” “tipsy,” “toasted,” and “wasted.”
Brands and spirits launched in the 1900s–2000s are too many to mention, but include Cutty Sark Scotch, Havana Club rum, Jägermeister, Kahlúa, B&B, Crown Royal, Don Julio tequila, Captain Morgan spiced rum, Irish Mist, Yukon Jack, Finlandia vodka, Stoli vodka, Midori melon liqueur, Baileys Irish cream, Zacapa rum, Absolut vodka, Chambord, Peachtree schnapps, Bartles & Jaymes wine coolers, Absolut Peppar, Absolut Citron, Bombay Sapphire, Gentleman Jack, Patron Tequila, Guinness in cans, Johnnie Walker gold, Crown Royal Reserve, Skyy vodka, Wild Turkey Rare Breed, Grey Goose vodka, Belvedere vodka, Tito’s vodka, Redrum, Plymouth gin, Three Olives vodka, Smirnoff Ice, Van Gogh gin, Hendrick’s gin, Jack Daniel’s single barrel, Bulleit Bourbon, and Smirnoff flavored vodkas, Ancho Reyes Chile liqueur, Ford’s gin, Chambord vodka, Zucca Amaro, St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur, Stiggins Plantation pineapple rum, and Sipsmith gin.

The Cocktail World Today—and Beyond
Between 2000 and 2010, the craft cocktail movement was in its infancy stage. Bar owners replicated the décor, style, fashion, and ambiance from either of two—significant—previous cocktail time periods: the first golden age of cocktails (1860–1919) or American Prohibition (1920–1933). Around 2010, bar owners had a light bulb moment and thought, “Hey! I don’t have to look like a 1800s saloon or a speakeasy to produce fresh quality cocktails because that’s the way cocktails should be made anyway.” That self-realization (the message pioneers were trying to communicate all along) was the spark needed for millennials to create fresh cocktails for all other types of bars. In 2005, there were only around thirty fresh craft bars in all of America, and in 2018, there are over 500. The craft cocktail pioneers should be very proud of this achievement.
What does the crystal ice ball predict for the future toddler, teenage, and adult stages of the second golden age of cocktails? Will robots replace bartenders? Will future bartenders become eco-conscious exploring ways to recycle the massive amounts of straws, cups, pics, and bottles dumped in landfills every day? Can bartenders cease stoking the embers of their wannabe-famous egos and simply live balanced lives, be good at their jobs, and understand the bottom line of hospitality? Will bars with fresh crafted cocktails be commonplace for the masses? Will tipping stop? Well, as for robots, probably not, because humans are social beings. Even high-tech futuristic fantasy shows such as Star Trek, which has the technological advances to build robot bartenders, choose not to. As millennials take over the cocktail wheel, it is safe to assume that they will follow their bartender ancestors’ example—and boldly go where no one has gone before.
