From New York to LA, from London to Paris, the art of the cocktail is back. Shaken, stirred, with a squeeze of lime or a slice of lemon, plus the odd olive thrown in for good measure, the ideal drink is only a jigger away.
This book offers over 140 cocktail recipes for both the novice and expert bartender alike - everything from the ideal Martini to the brain-stomping Zombie - plus advice for the perfect bar set-up. A few carefully chosen tools, some liqueurs and mixers, plus a suave selection of glassware and you're ready to become the stylish bartender you've always wanted to be.
This is the comprehensive guide to mixing contemporary cocktails, including many favourites plus some you've probably never tried before. And we've even tossed in a non-alcoholic cocktail or two to keep the teetotallers and designated drivers out there in the swing of things. This is your perfect party companion, with recipes for every occasion.
