You've never seen a cocktail book like this before! Many drinks we now call forgotten classics have been forgotten for good reason. They represent a period in mixology’s evolution, and while we might have a sentimental weakness for them, they’re often too sweet, lack subtlety or balance, have an over-reliance on alcohol or sugar, use inferior ingredients, or have obnoxious names. Cocktail culture's reputation will be forever tarnished by a rogues’ gallery of imperfect concoctions, of missteps and miscalculations. Buckle your seat belts. This book takes a bumpy ride from 1934's Clover Club to 1987's Sex on the Beach, including stories and recipes of 44 cocktails you'll never want to see again, anywhere.Other cookbooks by this author
