During the early days of Prohibition, speakeasies were illegal bars that served alcohol. They were often located in secluded areas, such as back alleys, and were frequented by criminals and law enforcement officers alike.</span></h2><p><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The speakeasy was a very popular Prohibition-era drinking establishment that operated in the United States from 1920 to 1933. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Speakeasies were typically small, dark, and secret, with hidden entrances and often cleverly disguised ventilation and entry systems. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">They were popular with law enforcement and bootleggers because they were difficult to raid and because the illicit activities that took place in them were generally out of the public eye.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The speakeasy was first popularized in the United States in the early 20th century as a way to evade Prohibition. At the time, the United States had a ban on alcohol production and distribution, and the only way to get alcohol was to purchase it from a licensed retailer. Speakeasies, which were illegal but tolerated, served as a way for lawbreakers to get their hands on alcohol.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Speakeasies quickly became popular with the public. They were often small and dark, and their hidden entrances made them difficult for law enforcement to raid. Speakeasies also served as a place for people to socialize and drink.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Prohibition was repealed in 1933, and speakeasies quickly disappeared from the American landscape. They were replaced by more legal drinking establishments that we all know and love today. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">However, speakeasies also had a reputation for being some of the most popular bars in the country. They were often frequented by celebrities and other high-profile individuals, and were often the scene of wild parties.</span></p><h2 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Some of the most famous speakeasies include:</span></h2><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The Cotton Club</span></h3><p><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">The Cotton Club in Harlem.

The name of the beverage, which translates to "the pinnacle of brilliance," may have sprung from "flapper banter" of the 1920s. The beverage may have been invented by bootleggers and their ilk to cover up the taste and odor of raw juniper in bathtub gin. Although the honey and lemon do a great job of disguising the alcohol, they do not qualify as light concoctions. Friends, the Bee's Knees is an extremely strong drug.</span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0.8em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0.35em; margin: 0.35em 0px 0.8em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'DejaVu Serif', serif; line-height: 23px;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpOZpgw275gCT41wF0rhSY5t--DOwAAzxoir6FU75ghPGfLtTuQhJOf5AuDcv7rXaY7aao4z4H2CdNA0ZHMGy638vjGv3WrFktfW7STMFmZ97XHaksvH5B6r0pSUQXKMCS1xmRnVW-S0KkK30P02-nn3jFMriyyS3wEGXIDleWwspfqyfZugFxSKqBdA/s256/download-53.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="The "Bee’s Knees" cocktail drink" border="0" data-original-height="256" data-original-width="256" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpOZpgw275gCT41wF0rhSY5t--DOwAAzxoir6FU75ghPGfLtTuQhJOf5AuDcv7rXaY7aao4z4H2CdNA0ZHMGy638vjGv3WrFktfW7STMFmZ97XHaksvH5B6r0pSUQXKMCS1xmRnVW-S0KkK30P02-nn3jFMriyyS3wEGXIDleWwspfqyfZugFxSKqBdA/s16000/download-53.jpg" title="The "Bee’s Knees" recipe" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The "Bee’s Knees" recipe.</td></tr></tbody></table><span style="font-size: 15px;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0.8em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0.35em; margin: 0.35em 0px 0.8em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding: 0px;"><p style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'DejaVu Serif', serif; line-height: 23px;"><span face="GalanoGrotesque, san-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #1a181e;">For a drink that's not your usual, we recommend Bee's Knees.

Mr. Embury does not have high praise for the drink, although he fairly divides the books into sours and aromatics. Both are not The Bee's Knees. When he offers readers his thoughts on the drinks, he is blunt. Here is what he had to say about the beverage.</span></span></div>
<blockquote style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: url(http://www.retrospectmag.com/templates/jsn_epic_pro_2.0_j15/images/icon-text-blockquote.png); background-origin: initial; background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat; color: #404040; font-style: italic; margin-bottom: 0.8em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0.35em; margin: 0.35em 0px 0.8em; min-height: 45px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 55px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 55px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'DejaVu Serif', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"><em>Early in the book I spoke in disparaging terms of the Bee’s Knees. This, however, was because as it originally came out during prohibition days it consisted of equal parts lemon juice, honey, and gin. If made as a variation of the standard Gin Sour, merely substituting honey for the sugar syrup, it is acceptable.</em></span></blockquote>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'DejaVu Serif', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"><br />Maybe Mr. Embury doesn't like honey, or maybe he's afraid of the Bee's Knees' secret power. The drink is easily ingested. maybe too smooth In my experience, it may even convert a fervent "non-Gin drinker" into a Bee's Knees enthusiast. It is a crowd-pleaser right away since it is sweet and sour. When moderation is put on the back burner, this might become problematic. Mr. Embury did issue a warning.<br /><br /><strong>How to Make it:</strong><br /><br />THE BEES KNEES<br />2 oz of Gin (Tanqueray or Plymouth)<br />¾ oz of honey syrup<br />¾ oz of fresh lemon juice<br /><br />Combine ingredients in chilled shaker, add cracked ice, shake vigorously for 10 seconds. Served up in a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with lemon wedge.<br /><br /><strong>The recipe for homemade Honey Syrup:</strong><br /><br />Honey syrup can be made easily by combining equal parts honey and heated water. Boil the water and stir in the honey until it is emulsified. Then store in cooled place. So the rule is one honey bear of honey = one honey bear of water.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5842041314612059601.post-89616501007144455842012-11-19T20:56:00.002-08:002022-07-02T22:55:06.388-07:00Prohibition Era Cocktails: The "Modern Cocktail" using sloe gin and absinthe.<h2>
Learn about Prohibition era cocktail recipes.</h2>
<h3>
The "Modern Cocktail" using sloe gin and absinthe.</h3>
We can date this drink back to around 1910. The Modern Cocktail was popular during the prohibition era in America. The major taste notes are of the Sloe Gin, followed by a slight smoke from the Scotch. The dash of absinthe gives the drink a subtle depth of flavors. A wonderful drink that you gotta try today.<div><br /></div><div><span style="background-color: white; color: #1a181e; font-family: GalanoGrotesque, san-serif;">Absinthe is a spirit made from wormwood, anise, and other herbs. Absinthe originated in Switzerland and France in the late 18th century. It was outlawed in France in 1915, and in the United States in 1912. The name absinthe is derived from the Greek word "absinthion" which means "unwatered" or "diluted". The drink was originally made by distilling a wine and adding herbs to it.</span><br />

<b>ORIGINS of the MANHATTAN COCKTAIL:</b></div>
One legend states the Manhattan cocktail was created at the Manhattan Club in New York City, honor the election of Gov. Samuel Tilden in 1874. Another story states it was created around the 1860's by Black, a bartender at a pub on Broadway street.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
A early printed version of the Manhattan cocktail is in a book titled "The Flowing Bowl" in 1891. Here is the version he gives:<br />
<div>
<div>
2 dashes of gum, 2 dashes of bitters, 1 dash of absinthe, 2/3 portion of whiskey and 1/3 portion of vermouth.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Traditionalist will agrue that the Manhattan cocktail be made with Rye Whiskey. But the truth is today bartenders use Bourbon or Canadian.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
There are so many variations of the drink today, i can count at least 9 off the top of my head. Bartenders use the Manhattan as a jumpstart to there creativity.<br />

<h3>
This was the drink of the week at the lounge last week, here is the recipe and some history.</h3>
This is a nice different, semi-exotic cocktail from the prohibition era. Well it was around for some time before the prohibition era, so it was well know by the roaring 20's.<br />
<br />
The Absinthe gives the drink it's main flavor, but being layered with other ingredients, it does not overpower the drink. There is also a nice, but again, not overpowering sweetness to the drink.<br />
The Kummel and the Sweet Vermouth balance the Absinthe out nicely.<br />
<br />
<br />

The man who invented the Bronx cocktail was Johnnie Solon who was a pre-Prohibition bartender at the popular Manhattan hotel. He was said to be one of the best mixers behind the bar counter for most of the hotel's history. He is said to have named the Bronx Cocktail after the Bronx Zoo, where he said he saw drunks hallucinate about wild animals.<br />
<br />
This cocktail is really just a perfect martini with the addition of the orange juice. The Bronx is also a close relative of the Queens cocktail, that uses pineapple juice.<br />

<b>Prohibition Era Cocktails: How to make the Mint Julep cocktail.</b></h2>
<h3>
This cocktail is still popular during the summer months in the South today.<br />A very popular drink during the roaring 20's.</h3>
<br />
<b>Origin's and History of the Mint Julep.</b><br />
My Grandmother was a hardcore flapper and she drank a lot of Mint Julep's in the summertime during the Prohibition Era. It is a very refreshing cocktail in the summer. We can trace the origins of a version of the mint julep all the way back to the early 1800's. The official drinks as we know it today shows up in print in 1938. The cocktail has been promoted by Churchill Downs with the Kentucky Derby since the 1930's. A cocktail that is drunk mostly in the summer as a nice refresher. During the Prohibition Era, people drank both whiskey and gin juleps. We will cover the whiskey version here.<br />
<br />
The secret to this drink is properly infusing the bourbon with the mint and then balancing it out with the proper sweetness. Remember to not bruise the mint leaves to much when muddling, just enough to release the essence of the mint.<br />
<br />
<b>1920's Mint Julep Recipe:</b><br />
<b>Ingredients</b><br />
<br />
• 5 mint leaves<br />
• 1/2 ounce Bourbon Whiskey<br />
• 1 tsp. powdered sugar<br />
• 2 tsp. water<br />
<br />
<b>Cocktail Mixing Instructions:</b><br />
Gently muddle the mint leaves, sugar, and the water in a mixing glass.<br />
It is important not to overly muddle the mint leaves, just gently bruise to release the essence.<br />
Add crushed ice and then pour in the whiskey.<br />
Garnish the classic cocktail with a mint sprig.<br />

Cocktails of the Prohibition Era: How to make The Aviation cocktail drink.</h2>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I finally had a chance to try a real Aviation cocktail last week at a modern speak easy in Omaha, NE. The name of the juke joint is the Sidedoor, I lounge that i really adore. The bartender or better titled mixologist really knew his stuff. I will write a review on that later. All I can say is wow, what a classic, I never tasted anything quit like that before. This is one amazing drink that you have to enjoy for yourself.</div>
<div>
<div>
<br />
<div>
The Aviation was invented by Hugo Ensslin, who was the head bartender at Hotel Wallick in New York. The Aviation was first seen published in Ensslin's 1916 "Recipes for Mixed Drinks". </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The original Ensslin's recipe was made with El Bart gin, lemon juice, maraschino liqueur, and crème de violette. Crème de violette is a violet liqueur which colors the cocktail a pale sky-blueish color.</div>
<div>
<br />
Later recipes omitted the crème de violette, because it was so hard to find, useing for a mixture of two-thirds dry gin, one-third lemon juice, and two dashes of maraschino.</div>
