Summary
Gimlet, negroni, manhattan, Long Island ice tea, flirtini, hurricane, screwdriver-cocktails have come a long way from their first incarnation in the seventeenth century, when rum punch was everyone's go-to drink. Originally made of five ingredients, including a spirit, sugar, and spices, "cocktail" now refers to any drink made of liquor and a mixer. In this book, Joseph M. Carlin uncovers how many of our favorite cocktails were invented and describes how this most American of alcoholic beverages-but most international of drinks-came to influence society around the world.
