Krátky popis
This charming volume is a reissue of the legendary mixology guide
by Frank Meier, the iconic Jazz Age barman at the Ritz Hotel in
Paris. Originally self-published in 1936 and offered only to a
select group of friends and favorite guests, this edition is
enhanced by stylish, specially created vintage-style illustrations.
With over 300 drinks, this is Meier's personal mixology Bible.While
all the classics are here, it includes several of Meier's own
creations such as the Bees Knees (a gin sour where honey replaces
the simple syrup) and the Seapea Fizz (which is actually named for
Cole Porter, the cocktail name spelling out his first two
initials). In addition to cocktails, it includes all manner of
libations sours, toddies, flips, egg nogs, slings, fizzes, coolers,
rickeys, juleps, punches, some nonalcoholic drinks as well as
extensive coverage of wines, eaux de vies, and even stylish
sandwiches. Typical for its era, it also includes Meier's wit and
wisdom, life lessons, etiquette tips, and invaluable advice on a
range of topics from the correct way to partake of a snakebite to
how to succeed at betting on horses.Frank Meier built his
reputation as a barman in New York but left for France due to
Prohibition. He became a celebrated fixture in the Paris nightlife
scene and was especially popular with US visitors including
Hemingway, Fitzgerald, and Cole Porter. He even served martini
aficionado Franklin Roosevelt.
