Originally published in London in 1896, this book contains "Recipes for the best Summer and Winter Drinks, both British and Foreign, including the so-called 'American Drinks.' The authors know by experience that there are few who are familiar with the best way of making these Drinks; but if the instructions here given are faithfully carried out, the result will be found to be quite satisfactory, not only to the learner, but also to those who wish to refresh their memories as to the many Drinks that may from time to time be desired. The Recipes are written in simple language, and show the best, shortest, and most economical modes of preparing the Various Drinks. For easy reference they are grouped under various headings, arranged alphabetically. A copious index has also been added."
Note that only about 10 pages of the book are devoted to temperance drinks; most recipes are for alcoholic beverages.
