Coca-Cola began as a headache cure. Dr Pepper, a digestive aid. Discover how sham snake oil tonics evolved into the world’s most beloved sodas at the second Drink Your History event of 2026, presented by Wornall/Majors House Museums. Sample bitter tonics turned fizzy delights amid tales of medicine shows and pharmacy counters. Taste historic “cures,” savor a period cocktail, and hear the stories behind these fizzy legacies.
Join us at Alexander Majors House Museum on Friday, August 28, from 5:30–7:30 p.m. Tickets: $30 (or $75 for the full series).
