The Bartender’s Manifesto: How To Think, Drink & Create Cocktails Like a Pro

BY TOBY MALONEY AND THE BARTENDERS OF THE VIOLET HOUR

First off, you should know that this is not an entry level cocktail book. This is what you give someone who already has a collection of interesting liquor and their own bar cart with a few other well-worn books on their shelves. Coming out of Chicago’s iconic bar, The Violet Hour, it’s a masterclass in technique, innovation, and flexibility. There are recipes, sure, but it’s more about teaching the reader how to think on their feet like a craft bartender, all while having a great time along the way.
