Cocktail school in a book.

Death & Co is a multi-award winning cocktail bar in New York City and this is the first book from the team there.

It’s not so much a recipe book as an explanation of the philosophy behind the bar (nothing particularly hippy dippy, just a case of bringing a culinary attitude that it’s difficult to make a good drink with second-rate ingredients), a guide to stocking a home bar (both with liquor and glassware) as well as the drink recipes themselves.

Some of the ingredients are definitely in the niche end of the liquor cabinet, but working your through this should make a reasonable bartender of anyone.
