Have you ever ordered a Cosmo on a busy bar night? Gay site Queerty dares us to ask for the queer staple and await what's bound to be a crocked look from the bartender.
Queerty says "one of the best ways to take the temperature of the gay community is to see what they're drinking." A gage of the community? Maybe not. A snapshot into the character of a person? Definitely.
Travel through time from before the Cosmo to the return of the classics with this brief history of the gay cocktail.
Personally, I'm a sucker for a good 12 or 15-year scotch. Who's buying?
