The cocktail bible of the Jazz Age, back in its original glory.
When Prohibition shut down America's bars in 1920, Harry Craddock, one of the finest bartenders in New York, packed his shaker and sailed for London. At the American Bar of the Savoy Hotel he became a legend, serving royalty, film stars, writers and expatriate Americans thirsty for the drinks they could no longer legally order at home. In 1930 he gathered his life's work into The Savoy Cocktail Book, and nearly a century later it remains the most influential cocktail book ever published.
Here are more than 750 recipes, from the Martini, Manhattan and Sidecar to the classics Craddock made famous: the White Lady, the Corpse Reviver No. 2, the Hanky Panky, the Monkey Gland, Satan's Whiskers, and hundreds more. Alongside cocktails you'll find fizzes, sours, juleps, cobblers, flips, punches and cups for every occasion, all set down with the dry wit that made Craddock's bar notes as quotable as his drinks were potent.
Bartenders still use this book behind the bar today. Many of the drinks now on menus from New York to Tokyo were revived straight from its pages.
This edition preserves the spirit and look of the 1930 original, including Gilbert Rumbold's celebrated Art Deco illustrations and the book's decorative ornaments, reproduced in color. It adds a new introduction on Craddock, the Savoy's American Bar and the golden age of mixology; editorial notes for the modern reader; an appendix [on ...]; and a complete index that makes every recipe easy to find. The original text is presented complete and unaltered as a historical document, with notes giving context for period material that today's readers may find offensive.
Whether you are a professional bartender, a home mixologist, a collector of cocktail history or simply someone who loves a well-made drink, this is the book that belongs on your bar.
