Chicago Cocktails

Why it caught our eye

We have a particular affection for books that make a familiar city feel full of discoveries. Chicago Cocktails takes us through the Windy City one neighborhood and one memorable drink at a time, introducing the bars, bartenders, and inventive recipes that give Chicago its unmistakable character. From old-school martinis to imaginative new creations, it is equal parts cocktail companion and affectionate portrait of our favorite city. A particularly good gift for Chicagoans, enthusiastic hosts, and anyone with an interest in the stories behind a well-made drink.
