Full Description
The Cocktail Parlor, Dr Nicola Nice, sociologist and spirits entrepreneur, gives women their long-overdue spotlight in cocktail history and shows how they still impact cocktail culture today. Journeying through the decades, this book profiles a diverse array of influential hostesses. With each historic era comes iconic recipes, featuring a total of 40 main cocktails and more than 100 variations that readers can make at home. Whether its happy hour punch à la Martha Washington or a Harlem Renaissance-inspired Green Skirt, readers will find that many of the ingredients and drinks they're familiar with today wouldn't be here without the hostesses who served them first.
