The Art of Drink


Darcy O'Neil :: November 15, 2005 9:51 AM

Cocktails have been a part of the culinary landscape for over 100 years. They have evolved from simple one or two part drinks, to flavorful master pieces. There are literally thousands of ingredients to mix, which makes it possible to suit anyone's palate. The cocktail is also a cultural icon. They make movie stars look sophisticated and normal people feel sophisticated.

On this site you will find original content and very useful resources for bartenders and cocktail enthusiasts. Included on the site is a transcribed copy of Jerry Thomas' Bartender's Guide. The first bartender and cocktail guide.

The mixology section has tips, hint's and other helpful ideas for bartenders or anyone interested in creating a great cocktail. The tips range from the recipe for simple syrup to the chemistry of cocktail ingredients. The site also contains personal reviews of cocktails, spirit's and selected beers. Cheers!

Love the recipes and the history too! So, do you accept recipe submissions from readers?

Thanks for the comments! I would gladly take recipe submissions from readers. Send me anything you want and I'll see if I can fit it in. What I would probably do is a bunch of recipes from readers in one post, and offer my modest opinion. If enough readers submit recipes it might become a regular thing.

I found your site useful and just when I'm starting to get more interested in mixed drinks. I hope to see more, keep up the good stuff. Also I have done some experimenting with Absente and have some recipies I wouldn't mind sharing, if you would like...

By all means send your recipes and cocktail experiments in. I'll give then a try and post some comments. You can email them to me or post a comment.

p.s. I'm currently touching up the comment system to look like the rest of the site, but commenting will still be available during this time.
