Hail New Orleans that for more than a century has
been the home of civilized drinking. From the time ofits settlement by the French, through the domination of the Spanish, and occupation by the Americans
after the Louisiana Purchase, the flowing bowl and
the adept mixing of what went in it has constitutedas high an art in this Creole city as the incomparable cooking for which it is famed.
___
The quality of mixed drinks as served in New
Orleans has always appealed to the sophisticatedtaste,but the drinks and their histories are forever linked with the past of this pleasure-loving city out
of which has come so much that is beautiful and gay, and so much that is worth preserving.
___
It was here that your pious Creole lady guilelessly brewed muscadine wine and blackberry cordial and
peach brandy chocked with authority. It was here that your gentlemen of the old school,more or less
pleasantly corned in season and out, made a cult of preparing a drink and a ritual of downing it. It was
here that your most modern of American beverages, the cocktail,first came into being and was given its
jaunty name.___
With a desire to acquaint the world, or that part
of the world that may be interested, with the art of mixing inNew Orleans,the
author of this book has cajoled from old and new experts the recipes handed downthrough succeeding generations and presents them herein for your delectation with a smile and a "Santc!"
