The desire to chill wine and other alcoholic beverages dates back to the ancient Greeks and Romans. With no refrigeration, these civilizations relied on snow and ice to keep their drinks cold. The original wine cooler was the psykter, a mushroom-shaped Greek vase that could sit in a krater of ice water or snow. The popularity of cold drinks has persisted across centuries to the medieval era and the present day. The wine cooler has evolved through time to meet these tastes.
