In giving mixed drink ingredients throughout this book,
I have, of course, provided he-man strength to each concoc
tion, but,as I have remarked previously,one may reduce the
alcoholic content at will and merely observe the proportions.
Forinstance,asmall Manhattan can be mixed with one ounce
of Rye and one ounce of Vermouth,a smaller dash of Angos
tura Bitters and a bit less of"gum." Thus,you may make a
cocktail any size or strength desired, and the same obtains
with all the drinks in this volume.
