Mrs Nice Invites You For Rum Cocktails
There is something particularly magical about rum. It fights heat in tropical climates and cold in chilly lands.
Rum, has had a rich and colourful history. Rum's fierce reputation, was not helped by the company that it kept. Many pirates, intead of the traditional skull and cross-bone flag, hoisted instead a flag displaying a skeleton with a dagger in one hand and in the other a glass known as a "rummer".
Rum, a delightful drink on its own, mixes well with many other flavours. Hence, it has become the base for many delicious cocktails.
Mrs Nice invites you on an odyssey of Rum Cocktails.

Apart from the pleasure of drinking a good brandy after dinner, brandy also lends itself well to cocktails. Brandy presents balanced qualities that modify the possible deficiencies of the other ingredients in a cocktail.

Mrs Nice’s Anthology Of Cocktails
The Cocktail culture is back.Today there is a renewed interest and appreciation for well-made cocktails.
The demise of the cocktail was probably caused partly by the rejection by young people of the establishment in the late 1960s and early 1970’s. They discovered alternative high’s that they couldn’t put in a tumbler with ice. The 1970s also saw more choices in beer and wine, which simplified drinking.
But once again people are enjoying the sophistication of cocktails.
Cocktail culture also mirrors what’s going on in other culinary areas today. Those who appreciate good drinking normally care about food, too, so as people care more about fresh ingredients and items such as whole meal and specialty breads, it would seem perfectly natural that they would care what is going into their drinks.
Mrs Nice, in this anthology of cocktails reintroduces us to some of the great and classic cocktails.
The anthology is a compilation of the smaller mini-guides Mrs Nice Invites you For cocktail series. Additionally there is a section on the history of the cocktail.
