THE ESSENTIAL BAR
A well-stocked bar doesn’t need to be extensive: a handful of liquors and mixers, garnishes and tools form a foundation for most of the cocktails in this book. Next, add specialty items based on individual recipes. And always make sure you have ice!
MUST-HAVE LIQUORS
Rum • Bourbon or whiskey • Gin • Vodka •Tequila • Brandy
BEYOND THE BASICS
Bitters • Orange liqueur (Cointreau or Grand Marnier) • Amaretto • Coffee liqueur (Kahlua) • Irish cream liqueur • Flavored vodkas & rums •Vermouth
FRUIT, VEGGIES & HERBS
Citrus fruits • Seasonal stone fruits and berries • Herbs (mint, rosemary & basil)
MIXERS
Club soda • Tonic water • Colas, ginger ale & lemon-lime soda • Fruit juices • Simple syrup • Grenadine syrup
WINES
White • Red • Rose • Champagne or sparkling white wine • Port
THE TOOL KIT
Cocktail shaker and strainer • Jigger • Muddler • Bottle/wine opener • Peeler • Citrus press • Straws • Cocktail skewers or picks
GLASSES & MORE
Highball (Collins) • Lowball (rocks) • Champagne flute • Martini (cocktail)• Margarita • Wine Glass • Pitcher
HOW TO MAKE SIMPLE SYRUP
Combine 1 cup water and 1 cup sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Boil for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Allow the syrup to cool in the pan, and store in a glass jar in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
HOW TO MUDDLE A DRINK
Place ingredients such as citrus or herbs in a glass. Add a small amount of sugar or bitters. With a muddler, gently crush and bruise the ingredients until they release their aromas. A wooden spoon handle is a good stand-in if you don’t have a muddler.

1 ounce vodka
1/2 to 1 ounce tequila
