A definitive catalog of the most suave cocktails. To shake or stir? Muddle or mix? The Gentlemans Guide to Cocktails answers all of these questions and more. Its the ultimate guide for the cocktail barman. Alfred Tong teaches you how to mix a margarita with mojo, a gimlet with grace, and a piña colada that packs a punch.
