This comprehensive cocktail recipe book for home bartenders includes 610 cocktail recipes from 6 continents and 60 countries, spanning more than 500 years of history. With most cocktails requiring only three or four ingredients, there is something for both the novice and the experienced bartender.

The drinks in the book range from world-famous classics to lesser-known regional recipes and influential individual creations, reflecting the time, place or bar where they were created. "Spirited also provides detailed instructions on how to set up a home bar: what tools and glasses to have, how to make syrups, how to decorate cocktails and much more. Specially commissioned photographs capture the elegance, style and playfulness of the book's drinks.

This solid home bar companion is full of character - each easy-to-follow recipe also provides interesting historical and cultural information about the drink itself and its origin. With Spirited, you'll learn much more than just how to make a drink.

Recipes are grouped by type of cocktail, indicating their country of origin and the period in which they were created. The book also uses infographic symbols to show the main ingredients and to highlight low alcohol by volume (ABV) drinks. The 430+ pages of the book include articles between recipes on topics ranging from the history of cocktails to aperitif culture and more.

"Spirited is an extremely useful guide, with detailed index sections at the end by name, main spirit or ingredient - a book you'll want to come back to again and again whenever you want to relax, surprise guests or celebrate.
