Ratings and reviews

I did a Google search for Yellow Fever ... a drink I enjoyed back in the 60s and 70s that contained only lemonade and vodka. I was surprised when I saw a version in this book that included pineapple juice and other ingredients. It is probably delicious but it ain't a Yellow Fever. No way will I be going drink by drink to check on traditional ingredients for traditional drinks but my confidence in this book is already shaky.
