Little Devil
The LITTLE DEVIL offers a lemony bite, but that’s as devilish as it gets. My preferred recipe below reduces the lemon to allow the flavors of rum, gin, and Cointreau to shine through, creating a more harmonious tasting experience. Requirements:...
Churchill
The scotch-based CHURCHILL was created as a dedication to the man, but not a cocktail he drank. With the added flavoring of lime juice and orange liqueur, this drink is shaken and not stirred. The citrus flavors enrich the more...

In a BANKER’S LUNCH, the neutral quality of vodka allows a couple of our favorite breakfast flavors — grapefruit & orange — to combine with dry vermouth in a spirited old-fashioned-style cocktail. Its mix proves the versatility of grapefruit juice...
Lemon Drop
The classic version of the LEMON DROP is simply vodka, lemon juice, orange liqueur and simple syrup. There is much room for experimentation with such ingredients as muddled fresh fruit or citron vodka; but the original is delicious, light and...
