Home Bar (Over 60 cocktails to shake, muddle and stir at home) by Andy Clarke

From basement bars to man caves and backyard tiki huts, the home bar has been a beloved, boozy playground for nearly 75 years. While the heyday of home bars arose in the US after World War II, these days the global pandemic has led us all to invest heavily in our homes and reluctant to mingle with randoms. What better way to entertain than by having friends over for a few drinks!

According to Instagram, today’s home bar is an upmarket concept featuring a trolley, some swanky ice cubes, homemade syrups, and reassuringly overpriced bottle of spirits. Sounds time-consuming, but help is at hand! 

Inside Home Bar, food and drink connoisseur Andy Clarke reveals his top tips on fuss-free entertaining and how to curate the essential kit – from swizzle sticks to spirits, glasses to mixers, and so much more. His recipes will include classic favorites, batch tipples to save time, mocktails as well as his own boozy inventions, guaranteed to get the party started.

Engraving is available on select glassware. If engraving is available for a particular glass, you’ll see the engraving option on that product page.

Because our engraving machine needs to securely hold the glass during the engraving process, not all glassware is compatible with engraving.

Most premium barware is designed to be hand-washed rather than run through the dishwasher, unless a specific product is noted as dishwasher-safe. Hand-washing with mild soap and a soft cloth helps preserve the finish, prevent scratching, and keep pieces looking their best over time. We recommend drying items promptly after washing rather than air-drying, especially for copper and polished metal pieces, to avoid water spots or tarnishing. If a product is dishwasher-safe, it will be noted in the product description. When in doubt, hand-washing is always the safer choice.
