Step back in time and savor the rich history behind your favorite refreshing drinks. From the tales of Alsace, where children listened to stories of Roman presence and the iconic coconut merchant with his liquorice-flavored beverage and picturesque fountain, to the early Parisian streets where soldiers in uniform enjoyed a break on a cafe terrace, captured in a photograph by Paul Emile Theodore Ducos. Travel even further back to ancient times, where a woman offered a drink to a weary wanderer in a stunning 1st-century AD fresco. Fast forward to modern times, with advertisements for Italian lemonade and mint syrup from Martini e Rossi, or the French tradition of L' trouge au pombe, an alcoholic beverage made by fermentation. Each sip transports us to a different era, making every drink a journey through history.
