NotesHigh Society in the 1930s was concerned with supreme gentility and extraordinary fun. When The Savoy Cocktail Book was published, it not only helped to enrich the style of the times, it became part of it. Over 80 years later, The Savoy continues to evoke a world of elegance and style. This updated edition features 750 original recipes and several new cocktails. Harry Craddock, head barman at The Savoy during the 1920s and 1930s, recorded his classic collection of recipes in The Savoy Cocktail Book. This edition includes new additions by Daniel Baernreuther, Erik Lorincz and their team. 'Being in the main a complete compendium of the Cocktails, Rickeys, Daisies, Slings, Shrubs, Smashes, Fizzes, Juleps, Cobblers, Fixes and other Drinks, known and vastly appreciated in this year of grace 1930, with sundry notes of amusements and interest concerning them, together with subtle Observations upon Wines and their special occasions. Being in the particular an elucidation of the Manners and Customs of people of quality in a period of some equality.' From the original 1930 edition of The Savoy Cocktail Book.
