Raise a Glass to the Birth of the Cocktail

Step into the origins of cocktail culture with History By The Glass: The Origins of Classic Cocktails (1806–1919) — the first volume in a collectible three-part series celebrating iconic drinks and the stories behind them. Each card features a hand-illustrated cocktail paired with its true-to-history recipe and origin story.

Experience the drinks that defined the 19th century: the Old Fashioned, Sazerac, Mint Julep, Manhattan, Clover Club, Daiquiri, Negroni, and more. Learn how American bartenders turned spirits, sugar, and bitters into an art form — and shaped the world’s drinking culture.

Each premium card includes:

  • 20 historically rooted cocktail recipes
  • Watercolor-style illustrations of each drink
  • timeline checklist to track your collection
  • Elegant educational storytelling for the home bar or coffee table

Whether you’re a home mixologist, a history lover, or looking for a timeless gift, History By The Glass blends storytelling, style, and spirit.

🕰️ Part 1: The Origins (1806–1919)

🍸 Part 2: The Prohibition & WWII Eras (1920–1945)
