Once again the epitome of glamour in America, cocktails are both taste-bud-tingling treats and superbly stylish. Sophisticated, cool, and appealing to the eye, just like the beverages themselves, this ultimate book on the ultimate libation is the recipe for a perfect cocktail party. Begin with the basics-essential equipment, decorating and serving tips, and unassailable bartending advice. Mix in hundreds of spectacular color photographs and a full range of fabulous concoctions, from the classic Martini to the treacherous Knockout, from elegant slow sippers to deadly Scorpions, from a Cool Wind to a Sirocco. Garnish with a chapter on alcohol-free cocktails too delicious and good-looking to limit to the drivers. The result? A subtle, harmonious blend of information stirred, not shaken, into a book with a powerful kick.

All the kitchen secrets, techniques, recipes, and inspiration you need to craft transcendent cocktails, from essential, canonical classics to imaginative all-new creations from America's Test Kitchen. Cocktail making is part art and part science--just like cooking. The first-ever cocktail book from America's Test Kitchen brings our objective, kitchen-tested and -perfected approach to the craft of making cocktails. You always want your cocktail to be something special--whether you're in the mood for a simple Negroni, a properly muddled Caipirinha, or a big batch of Margaritas or Bloody Marys with friends. After rigorous recipe testing, we're able to reveal not only the ideal ingredient proportions and best mixing technique for each drink, but also how to make homemade tonic for your Gin and Tonic, and homemade sweet vermouth and cocktail cherries for your Manhattan. And you can't simply quadruple any Margarita recipe and have it turn out right for your group of guests--to serve a crowd, the proportions must change. You can always elevate that big-batch Margarita, though, with our Citrus Rim Salt or Sriracha Rim Salt. How to Cocktail offers 150 recipes that range from classic cocktails to new America's Test Kitchen originals. Our two DIY chapters offer streamlined recipes for making superior versions of cocktail cherries, cocktail onions, flavored syrups, rim salts and sugars, bitters, vermouths, liqueurs, and more. And the final chapter includes a dozen of our test cooks' favorite cocktail-hour snacks. All along the way, we solve practical challenges for the home cook, including how to make an array of cocktails without having to buy lots of expensive bottles, how to use a Boston shaker, what kinds of ice are best and how to make them, and much more.

The Ultimate Cocktail Book is the only reference you will ever need when planning a cocktail party, having friends around, or when you're just in the mood for an exotic drink. Containing over 200 cocktail recipes and 120 colour photographs, this book is a comprehensive guide to everything from classic cocktails, such as the Harvey Wallbanger, to more unusual drinks such as Havana Beach and Juliana Blue. There is also a chapter on non-alcoholic cocktails including Cranberry Crush and Iced Mint Tea, making this book the perfect addition to any home bar. There is an extensive introduction that includes a history of cocktails, a guide to glasses, measurements and bar equipment and hints and tips on preparing cocktails, as well as some historical facts about the origins and names of cocktails. With interesting facts and information about cocktails appearing throughout the book, The Ultimate Cocktail Book is both an indispensable recipe book and a comprehensive guide to the history and myths surrounding the preparation and drinking of cocktails.
