In Esquire (April), David Wondrich writes about a basic cocktail formula that can be used to make many cocktails: 2 oz liquor, 1 oz fortified wine, 1 tsp liqueur, and 2 dashes bitters.

Playboy (April) has a story on gin, with some recommended brands and cocktails.

Men's Journal (April) has a story on Irish Whiskey with some bottles to try.
