Cocktail Keys  (English, Paperback, Cassels Rob)

The Cocktail Keys introduces the reader to the six 'key'cocktails that provide the basis for the vast majority of cocktail varieties enjoyed today. Instead of giving exact measurements for ingredients, they are explained in terms of proportions. This allows the reader to tailor each recipe to suit their glassware. Once each key cocktail is introduced, variations on each theme enable the home bartender to create thousands of original cocktail recipes while still retaining the fundamental principles that ensure each drink is simple, elegant and a classic in its own right.
