The old-fashioned : the story of the world's first classic cocktail, with recipes and lore

Simonson, Robert2014
Book
"A complete history of one of the world's most iconic cocktails, now the poster child of the modern cocktail revival, with fifty recipes for classic variations as well as contemporary updates. In this fun, unexpected, and informative guide, New York Times spirits columnist Robert Simonson explores the history of the Old Fashioned: its birth as the "ur-cocktail" in the late nineteenth century, ascension in the 1950s and 1960s (as portrayed and repopularized by Don Draper on Mad Men), and renaissance as the star of the contemporary craft cocktail movement".
