Modèle:Traduction A cocktail is a style of mixed drink. A cocktail usually contains one or more types of liquor and flavorings, usually one or more of a liqueur, fruit, sauce, honey, milk or cream, spices, etc. The cocktail became popular during Prohibition in the United States primarily to mask the taste of bootlegged alcohol. The bartenders at a speakeasy would mix it with other ingredients, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic.

Until the 1970s, cocktails were made predominantly with gin, whiskey, or rum, and less commonly vodka. From the 1970s on, the popularity of vodka increased dramatically. By the 1980s it was the predominant base for mixed drinks.

Compared to other alcoholic beverages, wine is seldom used in cocktails. Due to the wide variance of flavors and differences from vintage to vintage, region to region, and so on, the results of cocktails made with wine are not as reliable compared to cocktails made with liquors like gin and vodka.
