The Art of the Cocktail by Ben Reed

Photography by William Lingwood

In The Art of the Cocktail award-winning bartender and best-selling author Ben Reed tells you all you need to know about the art of making the perfect cocktail. In Behind the Bar, he takes you right back to the basics of mixology and provides a list of what to have in your cocktail cupboard plus a section on balancing the flavours in cocktails. In Equipment and Techniques there's information on the must-have tools of the trade and matching your cocktail to the correct glass. In The Perfect Serve he shows you how to create a gin and tonic like a professional. With more than 200 recipes there's a drink to suit any taste. Start the evening with a Power Aperitif – from an Orange Daiquiri to a Gin Gimlet. Create an irresistible Champagne Cocktail from a Bellini to a James Bond and impress your guests with a Smash such as a minty Mojito. For summer drinking try Highballs, Coolers and Punches like a Sea Breeze and a tantalizing Mai Tai. Sip and savour a Cosmopolitan or shoot down an Alabama Slammer from the Slammers, Sippers and Shooters. Round off a meal with an Old Fashioned or a Vodka Espresso from the collection of Digestifs.
