A Spot at the Bar

Come on a journey through the ultimate cocktail evening, starting with aperitifs at dusk, through pre-dinner drinks and digestifs, with nightcaps to round it all off. And, should you need it, the Marmalade Cocktail is an inventive hair of the dog for the morning after too. Having cut his teeth at Sasha Petraskes famed New York bar Milk & Honey, bartender Michael Madrusan brings with him years of experience to deliver golden era drinks. Starting with twists on classic negronis, martinis, champagne juleps, and gin fizzes, chapters also cover styles of beer, ideas for using port, sherry or champagne in cocktails, plus savoury drinks, like a Gordons Cup. Michael also includes tips and tricks for hosting your own cocktail party, from how to choose glasses, decorations and napkins to what to wear. Now all you need to do is find a spot at the bar
