DATE OF RELEASE: 2 OCT 2025
The Madrusan's Cocktail Companion is the complete new resource for cocktail enthusiasts - a handbook meets recipe book meets reference guide for the drinker who wants to know the origins and evolution of the classics, along with all the ways they are being interpreted and expressed by leading experts around the world today. Presented in a unique format that considers cocktails according to 27 branches that represent the central strands of mixed drink culture, including variations on the most popular cocktails, with an emphasis on recipes designed for modern drinking palates and requiring minimal preparation. Expanded from an in-house manual conceived and curated by Australian bar proprietor and cocktail oracle Michael Madrusan for teams at his world-renowned Melbourne bars (and to satisfy his own obsessive interest in the subject), it includes just short of 3500 tried-and-tested cocktails.
Michael has collected every possible classic cocktail published to date, plucked the best drinks from each, and updated the recipes for today's enthusiasts with input from leading bartenders in the UK and US. Includes the origin and story behind the key cocktails, essential know-how for home bartenders, imperial and metric measurements, and stunning photography in a spectacular hardback package - complete with multiple ribbons and sprayed edges.
