Suburban | Cocktail Party

Suburban

The Suburban, named for the nineteenth-century Suburban Handicap horse race series, is a classic cocktail with ingredients and proportions that wouldn’t be out of place in today’s hippest speakeasies.

The original recipe in the Old Waldorf-Astoria Bar Book called for rye whiskey and Jamaican rum. We actually prefer it with bourbon, but it’s great both ways. We haven’t met an aged rum we haven’t liked in it it, and it’s pretty stellar with dark rum as well.

Far superior to any other cocktail app

I have only been using the app for a short time but already I can tell that it is far superior to any other cocktail app I have used until now. The user interface is easy to use and visually appealing, and the search function displays recipes as you type which will make this app easy and fast to use. Highly recommended for use as a bartender or server, or at home making drinks for a party or night in. The developer also promises recipes added regularly and the customer support is second to none.
