Chartreuse by Michael Turback
Long, long ago, in the foothills of the Chartreuse Mountains of France, a group of monks set out to lead lives of contemplation and solitude. Far removed from contact with the outside world, they built a monastery and established the Order of the Carthusians. The monks mastered the formula for a medicinal brew of herbs, spices and flowers, promised as an elixir for long life, selling bottles in nearby villages to support the Order. Over the years, the fame of the venerable liqueur spread far and wide, recognized in the modern era as eminently mixable, versatile, and indispensable in cocktails. This book offers a fascinating collection of 88 recipes built on a foundation of Chartreuse, from faithfully re-created pre-Prohibition drinks to inventive, artisan cocktail-inspired notions. Prepare your mind - and your palate - for enlightenment.Michael Turback, a writer known for his variety and ingenuity, has tackled topics as diverse as the ice cream sundae, banana split, hot chocolate, the relationship of chocolate and coffee, inventive barista beverages, artisan cocktails, Finger Lakes Wine Region, the Farmers Market movement, Cornell University Who's Who, and renowned characters such as John Wayne and Toots Shor.
