The Way of the Cocktail Recipe Book – Japanese Traditions, Techniques, and Recipes | Books Grown-Up Books

Description

A rich, transportive guide to the world of Japanese cocktails from acclaimed bartender Julia Momosé of Kumiko.  The recipes are inspired by the twenty-four micro-seasons that define the flow of life in Japan. Enter a world where the spiced woodsy cocktail called Autumn’s Jacket evokes the smoldering burn of smoking rice fields in fall, and where the Delicate Refusal tells the tale of spring’s tragic beauty, with tequila blanco and a flutter of sakura petals. Perfected classics like the Manhattan and Negroni, riffs on some of Japan’s most beloved cocktails like the Whisky Highball, and even alcohol-free drinks influenced by ingredients such as yuzu, matcha, and umé round out the collection. 📖 Big Book Report: This book is BIG!
