The phrase ‘cocktail’ originated from the French word “coquetier,” which describes a mixed brandy drink served in an egg cup. As the beverage became more popular, the pronunciation was Westernized and eventually came to be ‘cocktail.’ This addresses the question of why cocktails are called cocktails.

Four things I enjoy!

The word and the drink.
I mean, why not hentails ?

And here I thought it might be because cock tails are fancier than hen tails.
I'm more interested in the dancing sandwiches myself.

Given a choice between the dancing sandwich and the B-J, I know what I'd order.
