About Beverage Day
Ends: May 06, 2022
DESCRIPTION:
National Beverage Day occurs each year in May.
It is likely this event first ran in the early twentieth century (1921) as part of a promotion by a bottling plant Re-Ly-On Bottler during Prohibition to assure the public of the safety of bottled drinks. At the time, food born diseases were common in unpasteurized beverages. Alcohol would kill many bacteria, but was now illegal. The creation of then Bottled Carbonated Beverage Day, (later shortened to Beverage Day) espousing the virtues of carbonation in eliminating bacteria, was the focus of the campaign. In 1925 the association representing commercial bottlers chose the first Wednesday of May for their annual campaign.
Today National Beverage Day is a day about celebrating what we drink from water and soda to milk, juice and even beer.
Several restaurants around the United States and Canada do mark this day by offering free drinks with meal purchases. On National Beverage Day, it doesn’t hurt to ask wherever you dine today if they’re offering any free beverages.
NOTE: The traditional date for this event is the 1st Wednesday of May each year. Sometime in the last 30 years, people began marking it on May 6th. There is no historical context, patent or organization sponsoring the event to tie it May 6th.
