Cocktails by Flavor: Over 340 Recipes to Tempt the Taste Buds - Softcover

Cocktails are all about flavor - and this great recipe book takes that as its organizing principle; making it easy to find the watermelon martini you're in the mood for today...or the cloudberry cooler you'll want next week. These luscious concoctions all come from Salvatore Calabrese - one of the worlds most honored (and bestselling) mixologists. Among the tasty categories here are fruits (from apple and kiwi to pomegranate and strawberry); vegetables, including carrot and celery; herbs (rosemary, mint); and sweeteners such as honey and liqueurs. All the groups feature classics, as well as contemporary and even brand-new drinks. Calabrese also includes enlightening background essays on the flavors and their uses. Lavish illustrations, cocktail glass iconography, and the tastiest libations ever - all in a handy concealed spiral-bound format that stays open while you're mixing - make this a must-have for every home bar.
