Energy: Cocktails to Get You Up - Stephanie Russ

No cocktail guide is going to make you giggle as much as this one, whether that’s in the process of downing its drinks or reading its contents. In an age of cookbooks that double—or even primarily function—as art books, this one satirizes and flirts with that trope in equal measure (not only are there off-the-wall recipes, there are also wonderful photographic interpretations of them). It dares you to muster the courage to meet its hedonistic standard. No one believes in the spiritual power that comes from the meeting of alcohol, energy drinks, and laughter quite like Steph Russ.

Death & Co: Modern Classic Cocktails, with More than 500 Recipes - David Kaplan, Nick Fauchald, Alex Day

Crafted with passion and skill, beautiful to look at, pleasing to hold, imbuing class and poise, and quite functional, Death & Co (Ten Speed, $40) is the cocktail-book version of a perfect cocktail. Death & Co is a small cocktail bar in New York’s East Village. It’s also a giant of the classic cocktail revival and home to some of the best bartenders in the world. Owner David Kaplan and his staff have produced this book with the same rigor and attention to detail with which they make drinks. Not surprisingly, Death & Co’s ingredients—clean design and expert knowledge—are of the highest quality, but the structure of the book is also logical and useful. In a genre where books are usually either pretty and inaccessible or drab and functional, Death & Co finds a perfect balance.
