Book Reviews of Vintage Cocktails - Authentic Recipes and Illustrations from 1920-1960

Book Review: A collection of savory classics
Summary: 5 Stars

If you like trying drinks that you're not likely to find in many bars, or are simply interested in the origin and original recipes for some wonderful but mostly forgotten cocktails, this book is a home run. These recipes are mostly from the 1920s, 30s, and 40s, so you won't see much vodka, but rather many gin, bourbon, and whiskey drinks, along with some liqueurs you've probably never heard of.

I've given this book to at least 3 other people, it makes a wonderful gift for someone who enjoys cocktails and experimenting.
