Toast (n.)
toast (n.)
- "a call to drink to someone's health," perhaps mid-17c., but first attested 1700, originally refering to the beautiful or popular woman whose health is proposed and drunk, from the use of spiced toast to flavor drink, the lady regarded as figuratively adding piquancy to the wine in which her health was drunk.
