Everything these days is specialized. Everything needs its own special thing. Even drinks.
Well, drinks have always come in different glasses, for as long as people have been sneaking into bars. But why?
On this week’s episode from PBS Idea Channel, the gang visited Ivy Mix (yes, that’s her name) at Leyenda in New York City to have a cocktail and discuss a brief history of glassware in drinking culture.
As it turns out, bar glassware has an interesting story. Even more interesting if you drink while watching the clip. Forget glassware, just chug.
