12 Best Bartending Guides, Cocktail Books 2020

The best bartending guides and cocktail books, according to bartenders and booze connoisseurs, including classic cocktail books and modern cocktail books like “Meehan’s Bartender Manual” and Amy Stewart’s “The Drunken Botanist.”
“For technique, my first and only recommendation used to be Dale DeGroff’s first book, The Craft of the Cocktail. It has a lot of valuable information in it, as well as recipes, so it’s still a good one to check out.” —Kearns
“I also highly recommend Liquid Intelligence, by Dave Arnold, for experienced bartenders. It covers the nitty-gritty chemistry of cocktails from the shape of the cubes of ice and the size of the bubbles in Champagne to the science of perfect dilution and everything above, below, and beyond. But if a beginning bartender wants to learn technique and amazing recipes, Death & Co. is always my go-to cocktail book.” —Swanson
