MY NEW COCKTAI L BOOK
The above are all cocktails. Among the special mixed drinks, the
Compiler can recommend the "Ramos Fizz." This recipe is
authentic, and no one who, in the old days, has visited the old
Ramos Bar in New Orleans and has seen the twenty young men
standing side by side, all day long, shaking these wonderful
drinks, will ever forget the sight; and the recipe is exactly the
same as was used in thatfamous drinking place.
The recipe for the Real Georgia Mint Julep is also authen
tic, although Bourbon Whiskey may be substituted for Cognac
Brandy.
It is also desired to give credit to Major R. A.C. Kane, that
shining light of the St. James' Club, Montreal, one of the finest
Citizens of the World whom the Compiler has ever met. His
prescription of Egg Nogg will be found authentic and satis
factory.
