At the beginning of the book you’ll find handy descriptions of all the tools and tips you need to master each recipe and, after a whistle-stop tour of the best choice of glassware, you’ll be well on your way to relishing in your own irresistible creation. Each chapter then reveals the best and boldest cocktails of each spirit; vodka takes the lead, followed by gin, whiskey, and rum, before some surprises from tequila, brandy, and all things bubbly! So, ready your shaker, strainer, and swizzle sticks, and delight in the sours, slings, punches, and fizzes this book has to offer.
