Over the next few decades, cocktail culture would thankfully evolve.
Oh, the ’80s! America liked its beverages sweet, and you could find these sugary concoctions on almost every menu. Instead, I would have ordered one of the cocktails popular at the time, like a Fuzzy Navel, a Sex on the Beach or a Long Island Iced Tea. When I was in my early twenties and old enough to go to bars, I considered these drinks too old-school. My parents were known for their fabulous cocktail parties and by the age of five, I knew how to stir up a Manhattan or a Gin Martini.
