Master Cocktail List

The recipes listed in this spec sheet are a mix of some popular classics and modern classics presented in metric units. I realise that different bars/bartenders have their own ways of making drinks that may differ from what I have used, however Ive tried to give versions of the cocktails that I feel work well internationally in essence this is a guide, not a book of law! Also, glassware is keep relatively simple (similar to what you would expect in a good home bar without needing to get too exotic). When training I encourage my students to write notes about the cocktails once they have made them (how the drink tastes, looks, if it reminds them of anything etc) and you will see a notes field next to each drink so you can do this as well. For more information about mixing methods, techniques, or ingredients check out the blog at http://makecocktailsathome.com This list is updated as new cocktails are added to the blog so make sure to check back often. Good luck! / David Turnbull, Sweden, Autumn 2012
