Three Ingredient Cocktails: 60 Drinks Made in Minutes

by Kate Calder

Overview

With 60 recipes, Three Ingredient Cocktails demonstrates that all the best cocktails are made with no more than three ingredients – think of the Martini, Old Fashioned and Margarita.

Divided by main ingredient – gin, vodka, tequila, whisky, rum and sparkling wine – each drink can be whipped up in five minutes or less, with simple snack suggestions at the end of each chapter to pair with them, such as Sticky Honey and Sesame Drumsticks, Loaded Beef Nachos and Baked Camembert with Hazelnuts, Rosemary and Garlic.

Three Ingredient Cocktails shows you also how to make the most of a simple home bar set up, and how to turn your living room into an on-trend cocktail lounge, whether your tipple is a Mint Julep, a Coconut Daiquiri or an Aperol Spritz.

With make ahead and batch cocktails, as well as renowned classics, this book is everything you need to bring elegance and style to your cocktail hour.
