WORLD’S FIRST VIRTUAL COCKTAIL !!

-
INCREDIBLE NEW INVENTION ALLOWS YOU TO CHANGE THE FLAVOUR OF YOUR DRINK FROM THE COMFORT OF YOUR SMARTPHONE Dubbed the “world’s first virtual cocktail,” no longer will partygoers need to wait at the bar for a change of drink, thanks to this nifty hack, which fools your senses of smell, sight, and taste with digital tech, tricking the mind into believing it’s tasting a specific flavor. Users can customize three different sensory modules to tweak their drink's taste–the beverage's color, electric taste, and the emitted scent, which all simulate the experience of their desired drink. Offering a fully customizable range of drinks and tastes, the ‘Vocktail’ can change a drink from a Mojito to a mango Margarita with just the click of a button. We hope that  ‘Vocktail’ goes out of the lab and into the pubs. Vocktail introduces taste and flavor as digitally controllable interactive media.

ORIGIN STORY The history of the cocktail is filled with many interesting and amusing stories, as well as some conspicuous theories and colorful legends.

Where does the word cocktail come from? Where did the word come from? As with the first instance of the term, the word itself can be left for debate too..but there are three popular theories that we’ve summarised for you: The Egg-Cup Theory (Coquetier) According to the Online Etymology Dictionary, the origin of the cocktail is down to a mispronunciation of the French word for eggcup coquetier (pronounced in English as a cocktail). A New Orleans apothecary (and inventor of Peychaud bitters), Antoine Amédée Peychaud, served brandy with his bitters in eggcups in the late 18th century. The Dregs Theory (Cock tailings) “Cock tailings” was a term used to describe the mixture that was created when tavern owners combined the dregs (tailings) of nearly empty barrels. The resulting mixture from several barrels would then be sold at a discounted price. This only makes sense when you know that the spigot (tap) of a barrel was sometimes referred to as a “cock.” The Docked Horse Theory (Cock T...
