The Savoy Cocktail Book
December 11, 2018 by JennyThe Savoy Cocktail Book: The Classic Bar Manual by Harry Craddock delivers everything you need to know about choosing and mixing drinks in this rare and highly collectible volume. Written by a legendary mixologist, it’s the ultimate bartender’s book, bursting with 750 recipes. Consisting mostly of cocktails, it comprises nonalcoholic drinks as well as sours, toddies, flips, egg nogs, slings, fizzes, coolers, rickeys, juleps, punches, and a myriad of other delectable refreshments. Extensive coverage of wines introduces the products of Bordeaux, Burgundy, and Champagne, as well as Rhine wines, port, and sherry.
This special edition reprinted by Dover Publications is illustrated with unique color images from the original 1930 publication with dozens of period drawings that imbue the book with a lively Jazz Age spirit. A splendid gift for bartenders and housewarming parties, it’s also a fine and comprehensive addition to home bars and libraries. The 1985 edition is indexed (as well as follow up editions) and we are in the process of updating this index for our members.
The Savoy Cocktail Book is the perfect hostess gift this holiday season – by itself or coupled with a bottle of spirits. Please remember to enter our Dover Publications promotion for How to Bake and Anolon springform pans.
