Step inside one of the best bars in the world and learn how the Connaught Bar’s virtuoso mixologists create 100 elegant cocktails—both contemporary and timeless classics—with easy-to-follow recipes and clear instructions on how to recreate them at home.

Alongside expert guidance for essential bar tools, glassware, and spirits, there are 120 additional recipes for homemade syrups, infused spirits, and garnishes that Master Mixologist Agostino Perrone and his team use to make their signature celebrated drinks, including the famed Connaught Martini.

Each cocktail recipe is introduced with a narrative from Perrone about the inspiration and ingredients that make these cocktails truly sensational experiences.

With a foreword by legendary chef Massimo Bottura and a preface by Anistatia Miller, and specially commissioned cocktail photography by Lateef Okunnu, The Connaught Bar is the ultimate cocktail recipe and hospitality book and companion.
