By (author): Anne Peck-Davis Diane Lapis

Cocktail culture boomed in the United States after Prohibition as America couldnt get enough of the new concoctions developed by barkeepers. Exotic drinking venues defined this era of drinking culture and were immortalised in the linen postcards used to advertise them. Transport yourself to an era of indulgence and glamour with over 50 vintage cocktail recipes (and modern twists), historical vignettes and more than 100 pieces of vintage ephemera. See more
