Author Description

Ice cubes clinking in a glass, soda fizzing, a cork popping off a champagne bottle--nothing conveys glamour and sophistication like a cocktail. Abbeville celebrates this great American invention with its Cocktails square notecards. Four classic drinks--a refreshing Tom Collins, an exotic Pisco sour, the famous martini, and an elegant champagne cocktail--are all rendered in delightful black-and-white illustrations. The back of each card features the recipes for these timeless drinks, so one can be sure of mixing a faultless cocktail every time. The perfect invitation, these cards are sure to make any party a success. Inspired by the book American Bar: The Artisty of Mixing Drinks, available from Abbeville Press. (12 notecards, 12 envelopes, 3 each of 4 images, 5 x 5")
