The Periodic Table of Cocktails

2015 | Food & Drink

"From a Bloody Mary to a Death Flip, each recipe is easy to follow and comes with a detailed description and facts of the drink. The handy book lets you navigate by base spirit, flavour and style - so it's ideal for those who know what kind of mix they want to learn." (The Evening Standard, The 10 Best Cocktails Books). Welcome to The Periodic Table of Cocktails! Instead of hydrogen to helium, here you'll find mojitos to martinis - 106 classic cocktails arranged following the logical ordering of The Periodic Table of Elements. Find your favourite cocktail in the table and, in theory, you should like all the other cocktails in the same column and also the mixes immediately to the left or right, because they all share characteristics - flavours, methods and styles you'll enjoy. Even if they use a completely different spirit or mixer to your favourite choice ...we think you'll like them! See how the most popular cocktails - new and old - were dreamed up, learn how these cocktails are made, how to order them and, most crucially, how to enjoy them at their best. Plus find out more delicious concoctions to try in this expert guide.

Includes a Periodic Table of Cocktails pull-out poster - take it on your next night out...?
