This book covers everything you need to know to build up your home bar in a way that is exciting, innovative, won't break the bank, and – crucially – is guaranteed to get the party started. Over 25 'prep' recipes span syrups and cordials, oleos and sherbets, bitters and tinctures, and pickles and ferments, to elevate your basic cocktails (and make them even more delicious). Try them out in 20 cocktails such as a Blended bebida with Pear and chamomile puree, a Sherbet gimlet with Chilli lime sherbet, and Mango and black tea bitters.
