Description
Sip and savor the bold flavors and vibrant culture of the Afro-Latino diaspora with over 40 drink recipes and 20 food recipes from Top Chef alum and acclaimed chef-restaurateur Nelson German, the culinary visionary behind Meski, Sobre Mesa, and alaMar Kitchen and Bar.

For Afro-Dominican chef Nelson German, drinks and food are about connection--whether it's sharing stories over cocktails on a stoop in Washington Heights or gathering with friends under the warm, buzzy lights of his restaurants. In Caribbean Cocktails, he brings the rich culinary history of the Afro-Latino diaspora straight to your home bar and kitchen, blending tradition, personal storytelling, and modern mixology. Inside, you'll find cocktail recipes easy enough for home bartenders yet inventive enough for seasoned mixologists, along with an ingredient index to help you make the most of every bottle on your bar cart, tips for batching drinks, plus low-ABV and alcohol-free variations for every kind of celebration.

Reflecting the vibrant drinking and food culture of the Afro-Latino diaspora, Caribbean Cocktails presents a rich selection of recipes from celebrated bartenders and chefs, spanning refreshing spritzes and bold island classics to tasty small plates. Each chapter highlights a distinct flavor profile, including concoctions for:

  • Warm and sweet flavors like The Heights Mamajuana, Gingerbread Holiday Milk Punch, and Coconut Rum Caramelized Sweet Plantains
  • Floral, fruity, and herbal flavors like Coconut Daiquiri, Zombie Revier No. 2, and Dominican Chorizo "Kipe" Bites
  • Sour and bitter flavors like Cafecito de la Mesa, La Cultura Old-Fashioned, and Coffee Cake with Guavaberry Caramel Sauce
  • Spicy flavors like Spice Me Down, Dominican Date Sour, and Afro-Cuban Mojo Olives with Peanuts
  • Salty and smoky flavors like El Premio, Mayaimi Swizzle, and Dungeness Stuffed Piquillo Peppers
With the unique, culturally rooted, flavorful recipes in Caribbean Cocktails, you'll soon be entertaining impressively at home.
