There are several stories that attempt to explain how the word for browned bread led to a vinous wish for somebody’s good health, or wealth, or any other possible wish. Read them in our History Book.
The truth is that the tradition of toasting is pretty universal and very old.
Cheers! Gan Bei! Prost! Salut! Cin Cin! Za Vas! Aish Karo! Za zdrave! Almost all nationalities have a word or phrase to say hoisting a drink.
We are collecting toasts from all over the world. In some cultures, toasts are pearls of wisdom and a beauty of folklore.
Most Rosinka toasts are remarkable quotations, sayings, proverbs, or short parables with a punch line constituting the actual toast. They are humorous and serious, simple and sophisticated, famous or unknown.
We welcome you to become our honored toastmaster by submitting your toast to us. We will publish them under your name.
Isn’t it a unique and amazing opportunity to inspire someone at a different part of the country or corner of the world to raise a glass to your toast?
Below are some sample toasts:
You are not wealthy until you have something money cannot buy.
- Garth Brooks
Toast: May we live a wealthy life.
A famous toast from Mark Twain:
Let us toast the fools; but for them the rest of us could not succeed.
Yesterday is ashes; tomorrow is wood. Only today does the fire burn brightly.
– Old Eskimo proverb
Toast: May we enjoy the warmth of every present moment.
A bird spotted a glittering necklace in the King's treasury and stole it away. Happy, it flew very high, higher than the highest mountains. Suddenly a gust of wind tore the necklace's string, and the precious gems scattered all over the world... It is a great luck that some of them landed by our table today.
Cheers to the ladies who are present here!
May you have more blessings than sneezes.
Irish Toast:
We drink to your coffin. May it be built from the wood of a hundred year old oak tree, that I shall plant tomorrow.
