"Simonson presents the backstories of more than 60 such easy-to-make modern classics in recipes sure to become repeat orders at your home bar." --Epicurious "Robert Simonson celebrates the modern day cocktail renaissance with a tightly curated collection of recipes from the buzziest spots across the country." --Food & Wine "All-star concoctions shine in this best-of-the-best collection." -- Publishers Weekly "Simonson is to the increasingly sprawling, crowded world of cocktail scholarship what Gibbon was to the study of ancient Rome--erudite, informed, invaluable. No proper drinking library is complete without his volumes, and Modern Classic Cocktails is one of the best yet." --Adam Platt, New York magazine restaurant critic and author of The Book of Eating "The Gold Rush, the Paper Plane, the Oaxaca Old-Fashioned--Robert Simonson had the brilliant idea to round up the recipes for the best drinks of the early-aughts cocktail revival, which, let's face it, yielded more bar classics than even the pre-Prohibition era. Store this book near your spirits and turn up the Strokes, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Interpol." --David Kamp, author of The United States of Arugula "The solar system had its Galileo, America had its de Tocqueville, the Civil War has its Ken Burns, and now the history of the modern cocktail has its own quintessential chronicler in the authoritative, dazzling, and delightful Robert Simonson." --John Heilemann, coauthor of Game Change and host of Showtime's The Circus "If you are a cocktail enthusiast like me, this book is a must-have. Not only does it tell the story of each of these marvelous concoctions, it also gives the most accurate recipe, plus advice on how to build a great drink, which tools you will need to do so, and some beautiful photos. Like the drinks it chronicles, this book is bound to become a modern classic in its own right." --Andy Ricker, chef and author of Pok Pok: Food and Stories from the Streets, Homes, and Roadside Restaurants of Thailand, "All-start concoctions shine in this best-of-the-best collection." -- Publishers Weekly "Simonson is to the increasingly sprawling, crowded world of cocktail scholarship what Gibbon was to the study of ancient Rome--erudite, informed, invaluable.

Synopsis
60+ recipesfortoday's modern classics with entertaining backstories from the cocktail revival of the past thirty years, by a two-time James Beard Awardnomineeand New York Times cocktail and spirits writer. "No proper drinking library is complete without Robert Simonson's volumes, and Modern Classic Cocktails is one of the best yet." -Adam Platt, New York magazine restaurant critic and author of The Book of Eating One of the greatest dividends of the revival in cocktail culture that began in the 1990s has been the relentless innovation. More new cocktails-and good ones-have been invented in the past thirty years than during any period since the first golden age of cocktails, which lasted from roughlythe 1870s until the arrival of Prohibition in 1920 and included the birth of the Martini, Manhattan,Daiquiri, and Tom Collins. Just as that first bar-world zenith produced a half-century of classic recipes before Prohibition, the eruption of talent over the past three decades has handily delivered its share of drinks that have found favor with arbiters on both sides of the bar. Among them are the Espresso Martini, White Negroni, Death Flip, Old Cuban, Paper Plane, Siesta, and many more, all included here along with each drink's recipe origin story. What elevates a modern cocktail into the echelon of a modern classic ? A host of reasons, all delineated by Simonson in these pages. But, above all, a modern classic cocktail must be popular. People have to order it, not just during its initial heyday, but for years afterward. Tommy's Margarita, invented in the 1990s, is still beloved, and thePorn Star Martini is the most popular cocktail in the United Kingdom, twenty years after its creation. This book includes more than sixty easy-to-make drinks that all earned their stripes as modern classics years ago. Sprinkled among them are also a handful of critics' choices, potential classics that have the goods to become popular go-to cocktails in the future., 60+ recipes for today's modern classics with entertaining backstories from the cocktail revival of the past thirty years, by a two-time James Beard Award nominee and New York Times cocktail and spirits writer.

    Item as described, but slow shipping. 18 days for the item to arrive. No padding in packaging, the item arrived a little beat up.

    A week passed before it shipped, so it took 2 weeks to receive, but upon arrival it was safely packaged, and just as pictured and described in the listing.
