Nice variety
A range of interesting mocktails, many of which avoid the cloying over sweetness you get from some books.

This book is nicely produced, good pictures etc
This book is nicely produced, good pictures etc, but it is definitely for a US audience. I can't find one recipe that doesn't require ingredients that are not available in the UK, so it's a bit frustrating. It would be good if the descriptions made this clear ... I bought it off the Amazon UK site.

The subtitle says it all.
Disclaimer: I haven't yet made any of the recipes in the book.This is a slim, very attractive volume; its glossy pages include "glamour shots" of many of the various drinks detailed within. The variety is greater than I expected. "Cocktails" evokes the Manhattan, mai tai, Pimm's cup and others, and there are recipes for knock-offs of those classics and more. But the books ranges much farther, as noted in its subtitle.It's organized into sections: elixirs and aperitifs; martinis and party cocktails; mealtime libations; dessert drinks; and nightcaps, which is a good way to help focus your search.The drinks aren't limited to "just" fruit juices, prepared mixes and high-sugar materials, either. Herbal infusions, flavored seltzers, various teas (green, black, white, even rooibos and hibiscus), vinegars and other ingredients are used throughout.The only drawback I've seen so far is that some of the ingredients are somewhat offbeat: sparkling pear juice, orgeat, juniper berries, lychee juice, blood-orange bitters. But the majority of the drinks could be made after a visit to your local well-stocked grocer.Techniques are simple, too. "Red Rooibos Rioja", for example, requires steeping rooibos teas bags with vanilla beans and peppercorns; straining; and then mixing with a pair of fruit juices and some spring water.
