Hardback. Condition: New. In a city known for celebrating in the face of death, it's no surprise that the funerary tradition is honored by a drink. The Obituary Cocktail is a spirited dive into New Orleans's bohemian past, chronicling how this cocktail-made with gin, vermouth, and absinthe-became central to mid-twentieth-century café society before fading temporarily into obscurity. Like a good obituary, this book shares stories about the drink, beginning with its 1940s origins at Café Lafitte, the oldest continuously operating gay bar in the U.S. and the stomping ground for the city's café society, which included Tennessee Williams, Ella Brennan, and a rich crop of prominent New Orleans visitors. Sue Strachan explores the history of the cocktail's ingredients, shares recipes for home mixologists, and resurrects the stories of other morbidly monikered drinks. With detours into the world of secret societies, second-line parades, and celebrations of deathly holidays like Halloween and All Saints' Day, The Obituary Cocktail gives new life to this unique beverage.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The Cafe Brulot examines the cocktail that was born of a legend and has endured through the centuries, showcasing New Orleans's love of flavored drama. A combination of coffee, liquor, and fire, Cafe Brulot also goes by the name Cafe Brulot Diabolique, "devilishly incendiary coffee." Varying somewhat depending on what restaurant makes it, the base ingredients of this unusual after-dinner drink are coffee, brandy, sugar, cinnamon, lemon, oranges, cloves, and sometimes an orange liqueur. Although the drink may have originated in France, Cafe Brulot is primarily mixed in New Orleans, making it a unique Crescent City tradition. In this entertaining little book, Sue Strachan delves into the history of the cocktail, the story of its various ingredients, and the customary implements used to serve it.
