Modernist Cocktails is a mixologist's dream: incredible drinks that challenge your preconceived notions of what cocktails can be. From Frankie Solarik, the visionary behind the critically acclaimed BarChef bars in Toronto and New York and judge on Netflix's Drink Masters, comes a bewitching collection of cocktails that intertwine art, science, and mixology. Frankie has been dubbed a "legendary Toronto experimentalist" by The New York Times and is revered around the world for his modernist cocktails-cocktails that become all-encompassing culinary experiences combining top-of-the-line spirits, molecular gastronomy, and edible components. With Modernist Cocktails, professional and home mixologists alike can try their hand at these multisensory creations. Inside the pages of this handsome book you'll find:

• Masterpiece cocktails: Assembled by season, Frankie's landmark recipes translate nature's narratives into spectacular cocktails served within evocative set pieces-taking inspiration from winter's thaw into spring, to a summer sunset's glow, to the colorful turning of autumn's leaves.

• Inspired sips: For every modernist cocktail recipe, there are three additional simple sips inspired by their central ingredients-quick-assembly drinks you'll return to night after night.

• Leading-edge techniques: Learn molecular methods like spherification, cryogenics, how to craft flavored airs and foams, and more.
• Homecrafted essentials: Elevate your bar with homemade bitters, infusions, and syrups-must-haves when building cocktails of all levels.

This design-forward book with atmospheric photography situates you right at Frankie's bar, both serving and savoring these stunning drinks. Whether you shake and stir or sit back and sip, Modernist Cocktails welcomes you into a wonderland of boundary-pushing cocktails.
