The Whiskey Daisy is a classic American cocktail from the 1870s that belongs to the "Daisy" family of drinks. These vintage cocktails combined a base spirit with citrus, sweetener, and soda water, creating refreshing long drinks popular in Victorian-era saloons.

The Sazerac originated in New Orleans in the mid-1800s and became the city's official cocktail in 2008. Originally made with cognac, the drink switched to rye whiskey around 1870. This bold cocktail features rye, sugar, Peychaud's Bitters, and an absinthe rinse.
