内容摘要 这本手册提供了鸡尾酒的基础方法,来自詹姆斯-比尔德奖的开拓者,将让你像一个经验丰富的酒吧老板一样理解和创造原创饮料。 与知名调酒师托比-马洛尼(Toby Maloney)和 "紫罗兰时光"(The Violet Hour)的团队一起,在制作鸡尾酒的基本阶段进行一次喧闹的漫游,学习调酒的方法和原因。当这家开创性的鸡尾酒酒吧于2007年在芝加哥开业时,它以创新的培训计划设立了一个高标准,不仅教授如何更好地复制经典的鸡尾酒配方,而且教授如何接受创造性,做出明智的决定,并创造出原始的、有灵感的配方。就像厨师可以从储藏室里探出头来,不需要菜谱就能随手做出晚餐一样,那些遵循《调酒师宣言》中的方法的人将拥有技术基础和信心,把他们的鸡尾酒技能提高到一个新的水平,用手边的任何原料调制出一种饮料。 首先,深入研究创造具有适当平衡、质地、香气和温度的鸡尾酒的机制。从那里,托比远远超出了工艺的微调机制,涵盖了如何启动创意过程并为饮料带来专业级的复杂性和精致性。其他文章提供了关于如何提供高级的接待(在酒吧和家里)的信息,在工艺的日常仪式中找到安慰,并在这个过程中激发惊喜和好奇心。通过对The Violet Hour伟大的食谱的详细见解、酒吧校友的专家提示以及有用的分步图解和照片,读者将更深入地了解酒吧的培训项目为何如此传奇,以及创造反映其个人风格和创造力的富有想象力的鸡尾酒的超级能力。 Offering a foundational approach to cocktails, this manual from a James Beard Award-winning trailblazer will have you understanding and creating original drinks like a seasoned barkeep. Take a raucous romp through the essential stages of fashioning cocktails and learn the hows and whys of bartending with acclaimed mixologist Toby Maloney and the team from The Violet Hour. When the pioneering cocktail bar opened in Chicago in 2007, it set a high standard with an innovative training program that teaches not just how to replicate classic cocktail recipes flawlessly, but how to embrace ingenuity, make smart decisions, and create original, inspired recipes from rote. Like cooks who can peer into their pantry and whip up dinner on the fly, no recipe needed, those who follow the methods in The Bartender's Manifesto will have the technical foundation and confidence to take their cocktail skills to the next level and fabricate a drink from any ingredients at hand. First, dive deep into the mechanics of creating cocktails with the right balance, texture, aroma, and temperature. From there, Toby goes well beyond the fine-tuned mechanics of the craft, covering how to kickstart the creative process and bring professional-level complexity and sophistication to drinks. Additional essays offer insider intel on how to offer top-notch hospitality (at the bar and at home), find comfort in the everyday rituals of the craft, and spark surprise and curiosity in the process. With detailed insights into The Violet Hour’s greatest recipes, expert tips from bar alumni, and helpful step-by-step illustrations and photographs, readers will come away with a deeper understanding of what makes the bar’s training program so legendary, plus the superpower of creating imaginative cocktails that reflect their personal style and creativity.
