Bottle of Cocktail

Recipe adapted from Tom Bullock's 1917 "The Ideal Bartender", the first cocktail book published by an African American author. Bullock is part of a rich legacy of Black pre-prohibition bartenders. This recipe is a batched improved Old Fashioned, and aptly named a bottle of cocktail, as historically the Old Fashioned was the original cocktail.
