This edition of Trader Vic\'s Bartender\'s Guide Revised by Victor Jules Bergeron and Helen Ann deWerd (Illustrator) is a Hardcover containing 416 pages with over 1000 recipes for the newest drinks and most popular stand-bys, including 143 Trader Vic original exotic mixed drinks. This copy appears to have been much used and loved! There are signs of wear and some staining on the book jacket. See pictures for full details. Inside the book has no markings and some yellowing. There are several pieces of paper marking favorite drink recipes which makes this copy interesting and fun! (Page, the bunny, is not included!) :)
For twenty-five years, professional barkeeps and home mixologists alike have found Trader Vic\'s Bartender\'s Guide an invaluable aid. Now, with this revised edition, the popular restauranteur has made this classic handbook even more useful. All the newest mixed-drink creations have been added, the passe concoctions have been dropped, and many recipes have been modernized and streamlined. Here are all the classics -- Martinis, Manhattans, Gimlets, Daiquiris -- 143 exotic Trader Vic specials, and some 1,000 more, including entire chapters on punches, hot drinks, wine cups and other specialties. There\'s even a collection of tasty non-alcoholic drinks. The all-new illustrations include a comprehensive guide to glasses and other barware. And, of course, the book is filled with the Trader\'s amusing anecdotes and sensible advice about selecting, preparing and enjoying drinks. In short, the book is practical, entertaining, completely up-to-date -- and likely to remain a fixture on American bars for the next twenty-five years.
About Trader Vic:
On November 17, 1934, Victor Jules Bergeron, Jr opened up Hinky Dinks with a borrowed $500. He set up across the street from his parents’ grocery store. From that single location, Bergeron would build one of the most successful chains of themed restaurants in modern history. Bergeron also gave us the classic Mai Tai.
In 1940, the first franchised Trader Vic’s opened, in Seattle, Washington. A decade later, the chain opened a location in Hawaii, and in 1951, the San Francisco location opened. As the chain expanded, other restauranteurs took notice and began emulating the Trader Vic’s marketing model. The restaurant’s growth was aided by the Tiki culture fad of the 1950’s and 1960’s, which helped the chain grow to 25 locations around the world. Patrons flocked in for the exotic cuisine, tropical cocktails, and Polynesian decor.
