Description


From the bar where the Bloody Mary was invented comes this newly revised authoritative collection of cocktail recipes, featuring both classic and contemporary concoctions. Originating from a legendary haunt of the rich and famous who have passed through the French capital, this collection represents Harry's New York Bar in Paris, an establishment that has hosted celebrities from Ernest Hemingway, Marlene Dietrich, and Jean-Paul Sartre to Noel Coward and Quentin Tarantino. Featuring the vintage mixtures that were created there, such as the White Lady, the Sidecar, and the Blue Lagoon, this updated edition also includes suggestions for more than 30 new favorites. Complete with a convenient thumb index as well as advice on mixing and serving, this is the perfect companion for professional bartenders and amateur enthusiasts alike.
