Publisher's Synopsis
The art of the cocktail can sometimes be overwhelming.
Recipes often call for special liqueurs or refer to convoluted measurements such as "dashes"-making a mixed drink much more complicated than it needs to be!
In Cocktails in a Measuring Cup, author Kim Layson Ambrose does her best to eliminate the confusion by offering simple recipes for anyone wanting to make cocktails at home. Centered on the measuring cup found in almost every kitchen and spirits found in virtually any liquor store, these recipes are designed to help people learn to make cocktails without having to buy different utensils-and without needing an extensively stocked bar.
With recipes for classic and modern drinks including the Alabama Slammer, the Hurricane, the Salty Dog, and the Peach Bellini, this unique guidebook provides easy-to-follow steps for making dozens of mixed beverages for any occasion.
This is the perfect gift for anyone who enjoys parties and cocktails with friends-from the amateur home mixologist to the seasoned bartender!
