“For over 20 years, I have tended bars and travelled the world, often as one of the very few women in a male-dominated industry. I’ve developed cocktail recipes, sought out new ingredients, and gathered stories along the way. In my first book, I’m inviting readers and home bartenders to pack their suitcases and come with me on an international cocktail adventure.
In the book, once you’ve gotten a handle on the basics of bartending and gathered your cocktail shaker along with a few other pieces of equipment, you’ll be raising your glass with me in no time. My recipes are organized by their star ingredients, such as agave, gin, whiskey, rum, vodka, and more. Every drink is given its own designation of standard, mid, low, or zero proof, and you’ll find a whole chapter on zero-proof cocktails because I’m passionate that all drinks should be prepared with care, whether they include alcohol or not. Once you’ve narrowed down the base that you’re in the mood for, let a great story & cocktail to match continue to guide you. In each chapter, you’ll find a collection of Mise en Place Recipes to help you build up your home bar’s essential ingredients and make the drinks along with me.
I’m so thrilled that Bittered Sling co-founder Chef Jonathan Chovancek (who moonlights as a pro photographer) captured all the stunning images. A Bartender’s Guide to the World is as much a pleasure to read, as it was to write, and for you, as it is to imbibe from.” – Lauren Mote.
