The Very Best Martinis, Margaritas, Manhattans, and More
Cocktails have enjoyed a revival over the past couple of decades. We visit bars but we also want to make them at home. There won’t be many sideboards that don’t have a cocktail shaker likely collecting dust at the back. The Artisanal Kitchen: Classic Cocktails: The Very Best Martinis, Margaritas, Manhattans, and More will encourage the owner to take a renewed interest in that shiny barware.
Author Nick Mautone has penned a neat and well-illustrated little volume which will teach all the basics of good cocktail making. Just as importantly, these recipes will enable one to make some of the most celebrated and iconic cocktails. With recipes taken from Raising the Bar (Artisan, 2004), this cocktail handbook will teach readers everything they need to know about making drinks, but also how to present then in the most appropriate glass. One can find Mimosa, Bloody Mary, the Cosmopolitan and Margarita. There is a 1940s Mai Tai, the potent Singapore Sling, a Negroni and many more delicious mixed drinks.
The Artisanal Kitchen: Classic Cocktails: The Very Best Martinis, Margaritas, Manhattans, and More would make the perfect stocking-filler for any budding mixologist. That shaker might not ever return to the dark recesses of that sideboard!
