According to the People’s Almanac:
“The Egyptians worshipped cats and punished anyone who dared to kill one. In the Middle Ages, however, the black cat was linked to witches and Satan. Since it was believed that a witch had the power to transform herself into a cat, it was thought likely that a cat who crossed one’s path was a witch in disguise.”
Of course, as feline freaks, we don’t believe any of that, right!?
We’re not superstitious of black cats but we do love any reason to try out a new cocktail. enjoy your run-in with a black cat or two in the form of a Black Cat Cocktail.
