Why read it?

1 author picked Batch Cocktails as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I love the premise of this book. When someone asks us for a cocktail recipe, 90% of the time–or more–it’s because they’re making it for a party. So, an entire book of cocktails already proportioned for a crowd and tested for success when made in bulk just makes sense.

From Carey's list on books for home bartenders.
