A Little History
The Sex on the Beach cocktail is believed to have originated in Florida in the 1980s. A bartender, reportedly in a Florida beach bar, created the drink as part of a promotion to sell peach schnapps, which was new to the market at the time. Given Florida’s reputation for beautiful beaches and lively nightlife, the name was chosen to reflect the carefree, fun-loving atmosphere of the state’s party scene. The cocktail quickly gained popularity and became a staple in bars worldwide.
