The Standard Tables
The Standard Tables indicate exactly which Standard Drinks it is
possible to mix with any given stock of bottles. The equipment
can be adapted to the size of the bar and every one of the tables
systematically supplements the preceding one thereby permitting
a successive increase in the size of the bar, the number of bottles
and the consequent increase in different drinks. The exact observ
ance of the contents of the table guarantees the proper technical
arrangement necessary for the international drinks known in
mixology.
Table I • Private Bar A
The stock of 16 bottles permits the preparation of 40 cocktails and
24 classes of drinks. The necessary stock and spices are indicated
and increase proportionately with the requirements of the bar.
Table II • Private Bar B

44 new cocktails and three further classes of drinks; a total there
fore of 111 Standard Drinks. (The desired drinks should be indi
