"12 Bottle Bar was created with the simple goal of making classic cocktails accessible to the home bartender. Despite having a voluminous liquor cabinet, home mixologist David Solmonson was continually frustrated by drink recipes that called for more and more esoteric ingredients. His solution? Create a fixed list of main ingredients – the twelve bottles – and present hundreds of classic and original cocktails that could be made from them."

Salmon like the fish
http://salmonlikethefish.wordpress.com/2011/03/18/effen-in-public/"On Wednesday a friend invited me to a vodka mixology event in Santa Monica. A mixo-wha? A mixology is an event designed around bartenders mixing alcohol to make creative drink combinations. Mixology. Since this event was going to have music, art, and a mixing contest I was eager to go to. We went to the Santa Monica event in the series of The Art of Design Presented by EFFEN Vodka which sat nestled in the William Turner Gallery at Bergamot Station Arts Center. The gist of the whole night was that there were five teams made up of two bartenders who were vying to create a unique drink with EFFEN as the vodka and the common denominator. For each of the five teams, attendees were asked to vote on their favorite drink and put marbles (voting balls) into the EFFEN bottle of their favorite team. Easily understood right? Just wait."

"As mixology becomes increasingly popular there are some many new drinks and combinations to try. However, the classics haven’t fallen out of fashion. These 5 cocktails might be old but they are still good! If you can master making these guys, you’ll be able to experiment on your own to make a million fun variations."
