September 18, 2024
The third Lemonade recipe in Jerry Thomas' How to Mix Drinks is identical to that in Mrs. Beeton's Book of Household Management, which came out the previous year.

I learned this in Jeanette Hurt's new book The Whiskey Sour. She postulates that both authored cribbed the recipe from the same source, rather than Thomas getting it from Beeton's book.
