The Seattle Times - "TO ORDER a cocktail is to enter another world," writes Philip Collins in "The Art of the Cocktail: 100 Classic Cocktail Recipes." The word cocktail reverberates, he says, "echoing an earlier era and evoking an idyllic setting complete with sophisticated men in dinner jackets and glamorous women in little black dresses. It is a word suffused with images of mystery, wit, repartee, even love." That's one powerful drink.
