جلسات الكوكتيل الكلاسيكية

I finally nailed a proper Daiquiri on my second try thanks to the ratio breakdowns, and the Old Fashioned chapter explained the sugar-and-bitters balance better than any video I've watched. It's a slim book, but every page earns its spot.

The Negroni section alone justified the purchase—finally a book that explains why equal parts actually works instead of just listing measurements. The history notes on the Old Fashioned are a nice touch too.

I've made three Daiquiris this week and each one finally tasted like a real bar version. The book breaks down why the classics work before it hands you the recipe, which is exactly what I needed.
