This drink’s history is that of legend. It's believed the cocktail was created in Boston, Massachusetts in 1898 when democrat Martin M. Lomasney won a seat in the state’s legislature, and named after the city’s Ward 8, which brought him a winning margin. Ironically, Lomasney turned out to be a prohibitionist, bringing the bar that first created the cocktail to close its doors. Cheers to history!
