List of IBA official cocktails

An IBA official cocktail is one of many cocktails selected by the International Bartenders Association (IBA) for use in the annual World Cocktail Competition (WCC)[1] in bartending.

The old fashioned is an IBA official cocktail in the "unforgettables" category

IBA cocktails are specified in centilitres (cl). 3 cl are approximately equivalent to 1 U.S. fluid ounce (1.4% more). 0.5 cl is approximately 1 U.S. teaspoon.

It has been proposed that it gets its name from either the South Side district of the city of Chicago, Illinois, or from the Southside Sportsmen's Club on Long Island.[44] The drink may have been the preferred beverage of Al Capone, whose gang dominated Chicago's South Side.[45] The gin imported by Capone's rivals on the North Side of Chicago was smooth, and usually consumed with ginger ale.[45] However, the gin consumed by Al Capone's gang had a rougher finish, and required more sweeteners to make it palatable.[45] Thus the South Side was born.[45]
