Author Kara Newman discovered the secret to making delicious cocktails - using equal parts of the main ingredients and adding a dash of bitters or a splash of seltzer. For example, the Cucumber Gimlet combines one part each vodka, lime juice, and lemonade with 2 cucumber slices and a basil leaf for garnish. These simple recipes can easily be scaled up for parties, making it even easier to enjoy artisanal cocktails without having to go to a bar. With 40 recipes ranging from two-ingredient sips to timeless classics like the Negroni, this book is a must-have for cocktail lovers.
