About the collection

The house collection

Forty-eight drinks transcribed from the original polished manuscript — spec'd, garnished, and tested. Chartreuse-forward, citrus-heavy, and unafraid of an egg white. Everything since has been added the same way.

The canon

The classics every home bar should be able to produce on demand. Added so "what do I have" gives you real answers from a modest shelf.

Measuring

Ounces throughout. 1 oz ≈ 30 ml. "Parts" recipes scale to whatever jigger you're holding. Rich syrup is 2:1 sugar to water; simple is 1:1.

Nothing is stored

Your shelf and shopping list live in the page only. Close the tab and it's gone — no accounts, no advertising, no analytics following you around. Ratings are the one exception: to stop the same person voting twice we keep a one-way hash, which can't be turned back into who you are.

Suggestions welcome

Think something's missing? Send it over. We read everything, make the good ones, and credit you on the drink if it earns a place.
