From Paul Clarke, editor of Imbibe and the 2014 Best Cocktail & Spirits Writer comes The Cocktail Chronicles, an approachable guide to the cocktail renaissance thus far and―as the name implies―a chronicle of the cocktails that have come along the way. Based on his informative and ground-breaking blog by the same name, The Cocktail Chronicles is not a lab manual for taking the cocktail experience to a molecular level; nor is it an historical monograph tracing the details of our forebears as they developed and mixed the drinks we enjoy today. Instead, The Cocktail Chronicles is a collection of approachable, and easily replicable drinks that all share the same thing: a common deliciousness and a role -- both big and small -- in the ongoing and thriving cocktail renaissance. With helpful insight into glasses,tools, and basic cocktail tips and techniques, The Cocktail Chronicles covers familiar classics, back-from-the-dead obscurities, enduring classics and the drinks they've inspired, and the contemporary cocktails the may well be built to last. This is the cocktail guide that distills all the noise of the current craze into one useful, accessible, and fun-to-read reference that makes cocktails easy to enjoy.

From the Back Cover:

The Cocktail Chronicles is mixology for the masses. Written by Paul Clarke, the executive editor of Imbibe, The Cocktail Cocktails is an enlightening field guide to the cocktail renaissance that’s never overwhelming and always welcoming. It’s not a lab manual for taking the cocktail experience to a molecular level; nor is it an historical thesis tracing the origins of the drinks we enjoy today. Instead, The Cocktail Chronciles is a collection of approachable and easily replicable drinks that all share the same thing: a common deliciousness and a key role―fully explained in Clarke’s engaging manner―in the ongoing and thriving cocktail renaissance. Informative, fascinating, and bound by Clarke’s belief that cocktails should be fun, The Cocktail Chronicles celebrates the breadth of the cocktail renaissance and it’s continuing revolution without making things overly complex or precious. Life’s too complicated; thanks to The Cocktail Chronicles, a good drink doesn’t need to be.
