Mezcal and Tequila Cocktail, Book

With an elegant platinum foil hardcover, Mezcal and Tequila Cocktails is an evocative collection of more than 60 recipes for cocktails with mezcal and tequila!

What do you know about mezcal? Perhaps you have a vague idea about its relationship with agave or that there might be a worm at the bottom of the bottle. You may also know that tequila is a type of mezcal or that mezcal is more intensely handcrafted than almost any other distillate, making it a truly special drink at your table. Or perhaps you've heard about its hallucinogenic properties - which, let's face it, are false. In the end, you probably don't know that much about mezcal, but if you have tried it, you know one thing for sure: its smoky, complex flavour is irresistible. And this fact is responsible for its recent rise in popularity in the United States.

Mezcal Cocktails will make you an expert on the drink before there's a mezcal bar on every corner of the city. If the 2010s belonged to craft absinthe cocktails, the 2020s will surely be the age of agave! With an irresistible silver foil cover and more than 40 stunning photos, Mezcal Cocktails features more than 60 recipes for craft cocktails made with this once hard-to-find spirit, such as the Mezcal Negroni, the Cactus Flower Mezcalita, the Oaxaca Old Fashioned and the Killer Bee Marrakesh Express. Plus, easy recipes for craft cocktail ingredients, from syrups to garnishes! Although not as present as vodka or whisky, mezcal is very easy to work with, as its flavour goes beautifully with many ingredients! Bartender Emanuele Mensah shares the rich and fascinating history of mezcal and tequila, while making mezcal a fundamental drink in your home bar.
