Don’t Drink and Send Telegrams – and Other Advice from 100 Years of Cocktail Etiquette Books

My first story for Food & Wine just went live. 

I took advice from 95 years of cocktail etiquette books, beginning in 1930 and ending with the publication of How to Be a Better Drinker last week [amazon] [bookshop]. 

I had fun going through my cocktail book collection to find other etiquette books, including The Official Preppy Handbook, to cite. 

Anyway, check out the story here!
