Cocktails & Bar

Cocktails & Bar brings together everything from the science behind a drink to recipe collections from the world's leading bars, plus Swedish titles for the home bar.

Dave Arnold's Liquid Intelligence applies measurable physics to ice, clarification, carbonation and temperature, and won both the James Beard Award for best beverage book and the IACP's Jane Grigson Award. Cocktail Codex builds the entire world of cocktails around six fundamental recipes, old fashioned, martini, daiquiri, sidecar, whisky highball and flip, and teaches a system rather than a repertoire. Death & Co brings together 500 recipes from the East Village bar that did more than almost any other to shape the modern cocktail renaissance.

Regarding Cocktails is Sasha Petraske's only book, published after his death, with recipes from the legendary Milk & Honey. The Connaught Bar contains more than 200 drinks from the London bar that has repeatedly been ranked among the world's best, while Spirited brings together 600 recipes from 500 bars around the world.

Swedish titles include David Kringlund's Hemmabaren, Emil Äreng's Svensk sprit on drinks made exclusively with Swedish ingredients, and Hans-Olov Öberg's books on gin and tonic and the search for the perfect dry martini.
