  The 1950s were an extraordinary blend of sophistication and kitsch. In mixing the favourite cocktails of this era you can follow either style, according to your mood. Cocktails can be as simple as you like or masterfully concocted as a work of art. This funky new book is the complete cocktail guide, packed with mouthwatering recipes and vibrant photographs. You can create a 1950s ambience in your home by serving drinks in fine crystal with linen napkins, or in colourful glasses accessorised with gaudy coasters, cherries, umbrellas and swizzle sticks. With a wide range of cocktails to choose from, from the colourful and exotic Singapore Sling to a fruity Lemon Meringue Martini, from a raunchy Between the Sheets to a sophisticated Champagne Cocktail, there is sure to be something for everyone.
