Tequila, Mezcal & More
Discover, Sip & Mix the Best Agave Spirits.
Cocktails have been big in bars since the 1920s. Tequila and mezcal have never been more popular, but there is more to a Mexican cocktail than a classic Margarita. Tequila, Mezcal & More: Discover, Sip & Mix the Best Agave Spirits guides us through the different styles of agave spirits and introduces us to some delicious cocktail recipes.
Mexico-based agave journalist and photographer Anna Bruce dives into everything you need to know about tequila, mezcal, bacanora, raicilla and sotol, the people behind the bottles and the many ways to enjoy your drink. You will learn the difference between tequila and mezcal and what actually counts as an agave spirit, how the making influences the flavour in your glass, and how to savour the spirit in a cocktail, neat or in a series of flights. This book offers a comprehensive overview.
Complete with photography of Mexico and its signature spirits, alongside illustrations from Mexican artist Uriel Barragánc, ‘Bouler’, this is the definitive guide to understanding and enjoying agave spirits.
Cocktails include: Agave Old Fashioned, Mezcal Mule, Desert Martini, Sonora Sunrise, Bell Pepper Margarita, Psychopomp, Paloma, Mexicano and many more.
Flights include: Aged Tequila, Derrumbes State-by-State Mezcal, Tequiliana and many more.
