Atomic (cocktail)
The atomic cocktail is a drink that was invented in the 1940s as a way to celebrate the testing of atomic bombs. It's called "atomic" because it's supposed to have a strong explosion of flavor in your mouth, just like an atomic bomb has a strong explosion of energy.
To make an atomic cocktail, you mix together a bunch of different types of alcohol, including rum, gin, and vodka. Then, you add a splash of a highly concentrated alcohol called absinthe. Absinthe is made from plants and has a strong flavor that is kind of like licorice.
When you drink an atomic cocktail, it might taste really strong and bitter because of the absinthe. But some people really like it because it gives them a fun and intense buzz. It's important to remember that alcohol can be dangerous if you drink too much, so you should always drink responsibly and only with the permission of a grown-up.
