Embark on a sensory journey that starts at the root of your favorite drink—the coffee bean—and travels toward the artful cocktails it inspires. The Art & Craft of Coffee Cocktails blends history, technique, and tasting notes to illuminate how coffee transforms from crop to cup into bold, nuanced drinks. Inside, you’ll find practical mixing guidance crafted for everyone from curious beginners to seasoned bartenders in standout bars worldwide. The book guides you through more than 80 recipes that cover a full spectrum of styles—from stirred and shaken classics to blended and “blazed” innovations. You’ll learn to perfect timeless crowd-pleasers like Espresso Martini and Irish Coffee, while also exploring contemporary feats such as Golden Velvet and Death By Caffeine. With clear, accessible instructions and pro-level insights, this hardcover edition positions coffee cocktails not merely as beverages but as a daily ritual—an invitation to elevate both home bars and professional menus. If you’ve ever wanted to understand how coffee flavors mingle with spirits, syrups, and techniques, this book unlocks that craft and makes every pour feel intentional and inspiring.

What Makes This Book Stand Out:
This book stands out by marrying deep coffee knowledge with practical cocktail mastery. It begins with a compelling crop-to-cup narrative that demystifies coffee’s flavours, origins, and grinding profiles, then translates that understanding into a toolkit for mixology. The author’s guidance speaks to a spectrum of readers: aspiring home bartenders seeking confidence, and professionals looking for precise technique and new ideas to refresh menus. The collection of recipes spans traditional and modern approaches, offering step-by-step methods for balancing acidity, intensity, and texture. Highlights like the Espresso Martini and Irish Coffee sit beside more technical feats such as Golden Velvet and Death By Caffeine, showcasing how coffee can anchor both comforting staples and showpiece drinks. The result is a practical, reference-worthy guide that invites ongoing experimentation while delivering reliable, repeatable results in real-world settings.

Who This Book Is Perfect For:
This book is ideal for coffee lovers who crave more than a caffeine fix, and for cocktail enthusiasts eager to explore coffee-forward drinks. It suits home bartenders looking to expand their repertoire, bar professionals seeking fresh ideas for menus, and gift buyers hunting for a premium, unique present for coffee geeks and cocktail fans alike. It's also a strong choice for aspiring sommeliers and hospitality students wanting a tactile, recipe-driven resource that connects coffee craft with the art of mixology. Whether you’re entertaining at home, stocking a café bar, or curating a sophisticated drinks program, this hardcover guide provides both inspiration and practical know-how in a single, stylish volume.

• Over 80 coffee cocktail recipes across stirred, shaken, blended, and experimental styles

• Timeless favourites like Espresso Martini and Irish Coffee alongside modern showpieces
