  What makes a cocktail a classic? Like anything that's regarded as a classic, it requires two things - excellence and longevity. A cocktail will never become a classic unless it's basically very good. And it should have been around for a while to gather classic status. Classics have stood the test of time. It takes time for serious mixologists around the world to learn about a cocktail, find out whether their customers like it and include it in their repertoire. From the Cuba Libre to the Manhattan, Classic Cocktails offers 33 recipes for classics old and new, together with a brief introduction to the various spirits and other ingredients and essential information on glasses, mixing, garnishing and serving.
