A statement

Cocktails In 1777, Betsy Flanagan invented the American “cocktail”. Cocktails originated in a tavern decorated with cocktail feathers in Elmsford, New York, in 1776. One day, when the tavern was almost sold out, some officers came in to buy a drink. A waitress named Betsy Flanagan poured all the leftover wine into a large container, stirred a hair from a large rooster, and served it to the guests. The officers looked at the quality of the wine, but couldn’t taste what it was, so they asked Betsy, and Betsy answered casually: “It’s a cocktail!” An officer heard the word, raised a toast with joy, and shouted: “Long live the cocktail!” From then on, the name “cocktail” was given.
