World Cocktail Adventures

The layout makes it feel like you're actually traveling to each country as you mix the drinks. I've already made four of the 40 recipes and loved how the stories behind each cocktail add to the experience.

Bought this as a gift and ended up keeping it for myself. The way each of the 40 recipes is tied to a different city makes it feel like a trip rather than just another cocktail book on the shelf.

The 40 recipes are genuinely varied—I've made the tiki-style one three times already and it's become my go-to for parties. The layout makes it easy to actually cook from, which isn't always true of cocktail books.
