American Bartenders School of New York

Invented by Ernest Hemingway, one of the 20th century’s most celebrated and prodigious drinkers, the Green Isaac’s Special first appears in the writer’s novel Islands in the Stream: Where Thomas Hudson lay on the mattress his head was in the shade cast by the platform at the forward end of the flying bridge where the controls were and when Eddy came aft with the tall cold drink made of gin, lime juice, green coconut water and chipped ice with just enough Angostura bitters to give it a rusty, rose color, he held the drink in the shadow so the ice would not melt while he looked out over the sea, writes Hemingway.

The mixing technique used when making a drink significantly affects what you’ll get in the glass. Imagine stirring a Daiquiri instead of shaking itthe resulting cocktail would be wildly different from the usual version due to three factors: aeration, temperature and dilution.

On the surface, the Rum & Smoke looks like little more than a winterized rum Negroni. But slip it underneath a glass cloche with a flamed rosemary sprig, and you’ve got a cocktail that’s sexy, smoky and cinematic. Want to up your bartending game?
