ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
It may seem strange to thank your parents first and foremost in a cocktail book, but I have to thank mineBilly and Estelle Parker. Because I was an only child, I always got to tag along with my dad and mom on business trips around the country. These often occurred in swanky restaurants in the heyday of discothe 1970s. While the food was delicious, the business conversations were dull for a kid. The flashing lights and glittery bottles of the adjoining bars, on the other hand, fascinated me, and I fell in love with bars and mixing at an early age. Later in life, when I realized I needed a trade to fall back on in case journalism failed, my dad sent me to bartending school. So thanks, Mom and Dad. Id also like to thank the numerous friends and colleagues who sent me ideas for drinks for this collection. In no particular order: Lucy Tallon, cocktail goddess extraordinaire of London and Africa; Stephanie Owen, vintage cocktail archivist; Stephanie Caruthers, creator of the most unique cocktail thus far in the twenty-first century; Alex Heard, long-time editor who knows a good Southern cocktail; and Wanda Stone and Kathy Williams, keepers of the cookbooks. A special thanks to the person who keeps me on track for all projects, my agent, Erin ReelLos Angeles superbabe and visionary who listens carefully and makes wise decisions about the future and direction of my work. Most of all to Wonder twin Glen Hooks who went beyond the call of duty to help with this book. As always, he offered unwavering support, silly laughter (especially when I was drowning in thousands of cocktail recipes at an ungodly hour of the night), keen insight, sage advice, and the desperately needed push (with plenty of Starbucks coffee) to make sure this book was born.
INTRODUCTION
Set-ups
o argument: cocktails are sexy and sophisticated. They sparkle with mysterious possibilities. Imagine a night in a neon-lit club. A handsome man spots a gorgeous woman. He sends a drink over. She wonders: who is this good-looking man who just bought me a Cosmopolitan? He wonders: if I buy her two, will she go back to my place? After three, will she still be standing? Endless seduction lingers in a cocktail glass regardless of season or setting. The beauty of a cold clear martini, a glass of perfect red sangria, or a sparkling vintage concoction transformed into a twenty-first century incarnation is liquid anticipation. For some, the thrill is in the warmth that comes with downing one of these potables. For others, its all in the shake, stir, or blend. When I was four, I toddled into a bar adjoined to a restaurant owned by my parents friend. Instantly, I was hooked, not by the darkness of the joint or the local television celebs who frequented the place, but
I n t ro d u c t i o n
by the jewels behind the bar. The bottles of amber and emerald, sapphire and ruby hypnotized me. I had never seen anything more beautiful. The fascination continued through my teens. Whenever I dined out, a Shirley Temple was a must. My dad preferred scotch and water; my mother straight water. Curiosity about how liquor tasted was never my game; the life of a barfly was hardly appealing. No, I wanted to mix. Let me behind the bar and Id whip up a concoction to rival any. Eventually bartending school beckoned as a wacky adventure I longed to have, and I mixed to my hearts content. Mixology is certainly a handy trade to have at parties to win friends and influence people. And practice does, indeed, make perfect. Its impossible to learn all the drinks in the world. Literally thousands exist and more are created every day along with new liqueurssome even appear to glow in the dark. Certainly, in the early part of the twentieth century, a mixer would have better luck learning all the cocktails than he or she would today. Mixologists often named cocktails after the hotel or bar that birthed them or for the patron who desired them. Cocktails such as the Daiquiri and the Mojito became famous in other countries and found their way to popularity in the United States. In todays fast-paced world of starlets and playboys jetting around the globe, the international cocktail is no longer so easy to define. But a good drink is. Whether its a Bloody Mary before noon, a non-alcoholic Safe Sex on the Beach after a sweaty workout, or a Garzas nightcap at bedtime, a well-made drink can be exhilarating, like, well, sex. And, depending on the category, just as complicated. Take tropical drinks, which are built with various kinds of rum and juices to get that island feel. But the classic drinks, the ones that have stayed through the decades from Sinatra to Sting, often only have two ingredients, but they are no less for it.
In the end, drinkinglike wardrobes and lovers comes down to personal taste. You can wear the most popular fashions, but that isnt nearly as much fun as finding your own style or yes, your own cocktail. Thats where this book comes in. Use it to try something new and unexpected. Maybe, after a healthy amount of sampling, youll find that you really do like the same kind of martinis your friends, or even your dear old dad, like. Or you may simply be happy to stick with the frozen daiquiri you loved in college. With a little courage and experimentation, though, you might just find your drink of choice is something else entirely. So explore the liquor store. Buy something exotic. Begin mixing. Expect a whole new world of adventure to open up. And remember this toast: may your enemies be lethargic and your lovers energetic.

ole Porter said, I get no kick from champagne. But what did he know? Champagne fizzes with dizzying expectations
and golden giddiness. Put simply: champagne makes people happy. Often associated with the beautiful and famous, champagne cocktails can be decadently expensive and devilishly delightful, especially when mixed with lavish liqueurs. So get the party started with a little champagne. Even if its not a vintage Rothschild, bubbly
inevitably transforms the most humdrum Herbert or Harriet into a shooting star.

TEMPTING TIPPLES FOR FESTIVE FROLICS
Tis the Season
our friend calls and insists that you throw a Fourth of July party. She suggests you serve more than beer and wine this time.
The creative stakes are high but not impossible. Move beyond the traditional drinks for summer celebrations, yuletide gatherings, and even Easter events. Try a funky cocktail called The Betsy Ross for Independence Day or The Black Turncoat for a Cinco de Mayo bash. For the most romantic holiday of the yearValentines Daythink outside
the champagne and chocolate box. Wow your honey with a glass of Red Hot Passion or a Soul Kiss, sure to make the heart, and senses, melt. Often, traditional holidays like Christmas call for traditional drinks like eggnog and wassail, but you can add an international twist to the family feast
by introducing the German Gluhwein. Bottoms up!
