Pyramid publishes books on a wide range of popular subjects including cookery, reference, mind body spirit and gift. Nor does Olly indicate the cocktails that use this Cabinet, which kind of leaves it hanging … Cocktail names are often tempting, regularly fun and intriguing: Aviation’, ‘Shimmying to Nantucket’, ‘Penicillin’ and ‘Jelly Bean’ are among the 200 cocktails in the book. Please be aware that customs policies vary widely from country to country and we advise you to contact your local customs office for further information. Read more about the condition Very Good: A book that has been read and does not look new, but is in excellent condition.

If you want to know more about the transformative effect of using bitters, egg whites/foamers, or the impact of different shapes, sizes and consistencies of ice, muddling or shaking, or whether, as Olly says, a drink is quenching or comforting (the Index doesn’t even list Sours), look elsewhere. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item.This is his first book of it's kind, but being a bartender already he has deemed this book as a great start (RE: recipes).

Each cocktail is introduced with information on its ingredients, history, and even the ideal time of year to enjoy it.

You'll find all the cocktail recipe inspiration you'll need to start mixing with The Classic Cocktail Bible. Includes 200 recipes with age-old classics such as the daiquiri, dry martini, margarita and Long Island ice tea.There’s no way we knew that we could use vodka for the Gimlet without reading through the alternatives under the recipes in the Gin chapter. Olly’s chatty style and evocative introductions do lead you to think of trying the Hurricane (which explains cleverly what two differently aged rums will bring to the drink), or his own invention, the Disco Dancing Mermaid, an azure party-starter based on Blue Curaçao.

Cocktails are soaring in popularity as the nation's tastes grow more sophisticated and people are thirsty for new flavours and experiences. We are delighted to share these three recipes from the book, with permission from publisher Quadrille.Floradora saw us sticking with Gin and adding Chambord to create a fuss-free, pale pink, sparky thirst-quencher, topped up with a fiery ginger beer to create a long fresh drink, light on the alcohol. You can find notes on spirits, advice on mixing drinks, and profiles of well-known bartenders among the entries. Leftover ginger beer led us to a Ginger Scruff next, using Vodka as the base and, rather surprisingly, adding Frangelico to it. If you're looking for a cocktail book that has all the classics and essential/standard drinks every bartender should know its this.

Due to the distressing and unfathomable lack of champagne in the house we used the French Harvest variation, topping up with cider instead.

You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. Perfect for beginners and keen cocktail makers, this book features old favourites such as the daiquiri and martini, alongside new classic such as the caipirinha and mojito. The flavours were well balanced, producing a sipping cocktail the equal of or better than most we’d had made for us. This book is your invitation to sip through the cocktail alphabet and includes an introduction covering fundamentals like glassware and garnishing.
