Mixologist: The Journal of the American Cocktail

The first annual volume of Mixologist: The Journal of the American Cocktail was published in April 2005 and featured works by noted cocktail authorities Dave Wondrich, Ted Haigh, Robert Hess, Gary Regan, Jared Brown, Lowell Edmunds, Paul Clarke, Audrey Saunders, Phil Greene, Anistatia Miller, and Darcy O'Neil. The never-before-published articles presented in this inaugural 200-page book focussed on the origins of six classic cocktails. Additional articles explored the legend of Antoine Amedee Peychaud, creator of Peychaud's Bitters; the history of Plymouth Gin; a definitive and scientific guide to simple syrup; and a look into the classic future of cocktails. Published by Jared Brown and Anistatia Miller, a portion of net proceeds from the sales of Mixologist: The Journal of the American Cocktail will benefit The Museum of the American Cocktail.
