About this title

Synopsis

Discover how just a few simple ingredients can be combined with whiskey, bourbon, dark rum, tequila, or brandy to create over 75 delicious drinks.

Brown Booze is a unique cocktail recipe book, which explains how to maximize the number of cocktails you can make using the bottles of brown spirits in your drinks cabinet. By substituting just one or two ingredients, you will learn how to make a whole range of different drinks. Take, for example, a simple St Lawrence cocktail, made from bourbon, maple syrup, and lemon juice. By substituting the apple brandy for bourbon you now have an Applejack Rabbit, a great cocktail with a completely different flavor to the St Lawrence. Or there’s the classic Manhattan recipe, using bourbon, vermouth, and bitters, that can become a completely new drink, the Harvard, by replacing the whiskey with cognac. Using this formula and a series of helpful infographics, you’ll see how a quick trip round the fruit and vegetables aisle of your local supermarket can transform the number of cocktails you can make, and at a really reasonable price, too. So if you’re having a party, get the guests to bring you just five bottles of alcohol and by following the advice in Brown Booze you’ll be able to make over 70 different drinks.
