  • Sip on some science: Learn from the Cook's Illustrated experts, including why glassware shape matters, the chemistry of proper cocktail dilution, and when and how to use ingredients like tinctures or flamed citrus to enhance flavors.
  • Belly up to the bar: Extensive introduction pours out no-nonsense advice on what bottles, tools, and glassware you really need, plus clearly teaches methods including shaking, swizzling, muddling, citrus juicing, ice making, and more.
  • Peruse the backbar: Bonus section elevates cocktails with homemade infused liqueurs, bitters and tinctures, syrups and shrubs, rim salts and sugars, and garnishes.
