Michael Ruhlman applies his ratio method to the bar here, showing that pretty much every classic drink can be traced back to a handful of relationships between spirit, sugar and acid. The recipes are built from principles around components, helping you experiment on your own with sturdier ground to stand on. Once you've grasped the structure, you'll never need to look up a daiquiri again. The book is short and conceptually tight, the exact opposite of the doorstoppers that otherwise dominate the shelf. Illustrated by Marcella Kriebel, which gives it a visual tone entirely its own.
