For the Love of Cocktails by Evelyn Chick (Hardback)
"In a cocktail world that is starting to look and act more like a science laboratory than a bar, Evelyn Chick is a breath of fresh air. Her easy-to-follow recipes will give readers more time to entertain and enjoy the drinks themselves-and isn't that the point?"
-Ivy Mix, American Bartender of the Year (2015 Spirited Awards), Mixologist of the Year (2016, Wine Enthusiast), co-owner Leyenda, Brooklyn
A great cocktail is more than the sum of its parts. Globally acclaimed beverage expert Evelyn Chick knows that our enjoyment of a cocktail goes beyond the ingredients, equipment, and skills in the mix: it's about keeping an open mind and embracing the simple joy of sharing flavors with others.
In this playful collection of recipes, Chick celebrates the simple joy of sharing flavors in approachable ways, offering unpretentious guidance on:
Home bar tool and pantry essentialsSpirit categoriesEasy-peasy fancy garnishesSeriously refreshing summer drinks and warming cocktail-hour staplesLow-alcohol, zero-proof, and cannabis-inclusive optionsLarge-format servings for get-togethersVersatile syrups, tinctures, and infusions
For the Love of Cocktails will inspire home bartenders-both beginners and those looking to level up-to curate the right drink for every occasion, whether you're in the mood for an after-work cocktail, a celebratory libation, or a backyard party favor.
"Guaranteed to delight the palate of even the most discerning of cocktail aficionados. A must- have for the modern drinker."
-Erick Castro, award-winning bartender; host of Bartender at Large
"Levelling up the at-home happy-hour experience for any occasion … Evelyn Chick mixes artistry and alchemy with practical advice, easy-to-find ingredients and mood-based recipes that deliver."
-Elle Canada
"This is the kind of mixology guide that will have a place on bookshelves for years to come."
-Library Journal

Additional Delivery Information (and some really important bits):
UK Delivery
Orders for delivery in the UK are normally despatched by Royal Mail, using the RM 48 Tracked Service with most orders delivered to you within a few days of placing your order with us. For larger parcels, Courier and Signed For delivery services may be used. Signed Books are shipped in our specially made book mailing cartons, with the books themselves wrapped in paper to protect them. Sometimes we may ship your order in several parts, particularly if you have 'Pre-Order' titles in your order or titles which are held in stock with our publishing partners.
The Really Important Bit: Because we use tracked, courier and signed for delivery services, please use an address at which your parcel can be received during the normal working day, for example, you may want to have your order delivered to your work address if you're not at home during the day.
First Item @ £3.75 (sometimes a shipping supplement may be added for particularly heavy books or specific postcodes*)

Another Really Important Bit: There are a number of Postcodes in the UK for which we will need to charge a shipping supplement, this will be calculated once we know the size and weight of the shipment. For these orders we will contact customers to agree a suitable and economic method of shipping. There may also be additional time required for delivery to some areas of the United Kingdom. Where possible, we will ship book orders (under 2kg) by Royal Mail to all UK postcodes. Large multiple book orders and books over 2kg are often shipped via APC Overnight or similar, regardless of Postcode.
