Equal Parts Cocktails is a stylish, foolproof guide to making exceptional drinks at home using one brilliantly simple idea - every recipe uses equal parts. With no complex ratios, obscure techniques or specialist bar gear required, Fred Siggins demystifies cocktail-making with clear, confidence-boosting instructions that help anyone shake, stir or build genuinely great drinks using easy-to-find ingredients. Packed with 50 equal-parts cocktails and organised into approachable chapters spanning classics, modern favourites and rediscovered gems, the book makes mixology memorable, adaptable and fun - with simple tweaks that encourage readers to swap ingredients, play with flavour and develop a more intuitive sense of balance. Moody, contemporary and highly giftable, Equal Parts Cocktails is designed to appeal to home entertainers, design-minded readers and cocktail lovers alike.
