Here are so more references to Mixology and Mixologist.


The Fresno Republican, 17th June 1882.

"The "Elite," ... in Fresno, is under the sole management of the famous J. P. 
Carrol, one of the most celebrated compounders of spiritual beverages of the 
age. The art of "mixology" has been reduced to a science,"


Manitoba Daily Free Press, 27th September 1880.

"Professor Dick, mixologist, (late of the Golden) will preside at the bar."


Nevada State Journal, 29th May 1878.

"MR. L. E. CREWS, An experienced mixologist has entirely remodeled the old 
Commercial Exchange,"


Weekly Nevada State Journal, 8th September 1877.

"HARRY DUGAL is tbe mixologist in the Mint saloon"


Hornellsville Tribune", 19th July 1860

"The "mixologist " announced his ignorance of the manner of preparing the 
compound" 

(they were referring to a Sherry Cobbler).


So in 4 years it will be the 150th anniversary of the word Mixology/ 
Mixologist.


Cheers!
