The sixth season of "Mad Men" kicks off Sunday night on AMC and what better way to welcome Don Draper and the crew back than with a toast? Over the years, the show has popularized the cocktail culture of the era, highlighting the many classic drinks professionals would savor to ease business blues. READ: Is Alcohol an Aphrodisiac or Does it Put Sex on the Rocks? “The media always has and will continue to influence the way people drink,” explains Pamela Wiznitzer, the United States Bartender Guild NY President and mixologist at New York City’s Dead Rabbit. “Some may argue that classic drinks were on the way back into vogue and the timing of the show just happened to coincide, but I believe that the popularity of ‘Mad Men’ is due to the historical accuracy and attention to cocktails. It has created a buzz among viewers and many were intrigued by the beverages imbibed by the characters.” While “Mad Men” has highlighted classic cocktails like the martini and the old fashioned, Wiznitzer says audiences can expect to see more drinks featuring vodka, which had a spike in popularity during the late 1960s where the series currently takes place. Welcome back Draper and the rest of the cast by enjoying some of these “Mad Men”- inspired cocktails:
