DESCRIPTION:

National Bartender Day pays homage to the longstanding and rich history of bartending, a profession that has been a part of human culture since ancient times. The day originated in 2011.

In the United States alone, there are over half a million bartenders, making this day a significant occasion to celebrate the skills and contributions of mixologists everywhere.

The history of bartending stretches back to antiquity and is deeply rooted in various cultures worldwide. In Europe, bartending originated with innkeepers, who often served as bartenders, creating ales and spirits for their guests. This tradition laid the groundwork for the modern bartending profession.

A significant milestone in American bartending history was the publication of "The Bartender's Guide" by Jerry Thomas in 1862, a notable American bartender and saloon owner. This book, distributed in the US, was a pioneering work in the field of mixology, establishing a foundation for the craft and profession of bartending.

Throughout history, bartenders have demonstrated resilience and adaptability, particularly evident during the Prohibition era in the United States. During this time, bartenders continued to practice their craft in underground speakeasies, creating iconic drinks and further evolving the art of mixology.

Even during Prohibition in the United States, bartending thrived in the underground scene. Speakeasies, operating secretly, became hubs where bartenders continued to innovate and serve, giving rise to iconic drinks like the gin and tonic. This era is a testament to the resilience and ingenuity of bartenders in the face of legal constraints.

Today, bartending is a skilled profession, with practitioners known for their creativity, knowledge of spirits and cocktails, and ability to create a welcoming atmosphere for patrons. The evolution of bartending from its humble beginnings to its current status reflects this timeless profession's cultural and social importance.

National Bartender Day is thus not just a celebration of the individuals who craft our adult beverages but also a recognition of the deep historical and cultural roots of bartending.
