Absolutely nothing to do with startups, but how cool is this classic
The Jerry Thomas Bartender’s Guide from 1862 is now available in its entirety on-line. Featuring such classics as the Martinez and the Spread Eagle Punch.
That last one sounds great —
- a bottle of scotch (Islay single of course)
- a bottle of Monongahela Rye (good luck finding that nowadays, but I guess you could use any old Rye)
- Lemon peel, sugar and boiling water at discretion.
Now I need to find out what a pony measure is. I guess google is my friend here.
