But as bartenders continue to push the limits of mixology, more and more programs are spotlighting split-base cocktails, which use two different spirits as the foundation of their builds.

Cocktail Recipe - French 75
History Who was the greatest bartender of all? Many have their favourites but Harry MacElhone would feature in most lists.
