A classic cocktail book from café society New York, with the scarce dust-jacket. The Stork Club was established during the prohibition by the bootlegger Sherman Billingsley, going on to become one of the most prestigious clubs in the world before its closure in 1965.

With recipes for the times of day including Rob Roys, Daiquiri, and the signature Stork Club Cocktail — a dash of lime juice, half an orange, triple sec, 1½ oz gin, Angostura bitter 'Shake well and strain in chilled 4 oz. glass'. See less
