About this episode
"A stimulating liquor, composed of spirits of any kind, sugar, water, and bitters." Over 200 years since their publication in a New York state newspaper, those 13 words continue to stand as the very definition of the cocktail. They ring true when dissecting everything from an Old Fashioned to a Martini, Manhattan, Sazerac, or Pisco Sour. But do they capture the full essence of 21st-century cocktails or is this iconic definition due a modern-day re-examination? We're joined today by Greg Boehm, CEO of Cocktail Kingdom and the Cocktail Kingdom Hospitality Group to explore just that. We'll also learn about his background as an antique book collector and publisher, and the impact his work has had on the modern cocktail landscape. It's our 100th episode special, listener, so please don't forget to like, review, and subscribe! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
