In The Art of the Cocktail, award-winning bartender Ben Reed tells you all you need to know about the art of making the perfect cocktail. He instructs on the basics of mixology beginning with cocktail base spirits. From vodka to rum, you'll discover what makes each drink perfect for mixing in cocktails. Ben tells you how to shake or stir a martini, explains what to do with a muddler, and matches your cocktail to the correct glass.
With more than 200 recipes, there's a drink to suit any taste. Start the evening with an Aperitif--from an Orange Daiquiri to a Gin Gimlet. Create a Champagne Cocktail from a Bellini to a James Bond and enjoy smashes like a minty Mojito. There are refreshing cocktails for summer drinking such as the classic Cosmopolitan or shoot an Alabama Slammer. Finish dinner with a Vodka Espresso from the collection of Digestifs.
