The cocktail is credited as one of America’s greatest inventions. Sarah and Soma will examine the dawn of the cocktail and trace the origins of some of our country’s most beloved imbibements. You’ll learn how to make the drinks that got your ancestors drunk: the sherry cobbler, the mint julep and more. We'll talk blue blazers and Jerry Thomas, and Soma reveals tips for making the best modern cocktails: the secrets of the right ice and shaken vs. stirred. 


Cocktails!

Each month, Masters of Social Gastronomy takes on a curious food topic and breaks down the history, science, and stories behind it.

MSG is brought to you by Sarah Lohman and Jonathan Soma and hosted at Caveat NYC.  From strange meat to fake meat; from candy to artificial flavors; MSG takes on food's most fun, engaging, and controversial issues. 

New shows the third Monday of every month!
