If you think that tequila can only be consumed as a slammer with salt and lime (with a chaser of the world's-worst-hangover), think again: Dan Jones is about to set the record straight. In Tequila: Shake, Muddle, Stir, Dan introduces readers to some rather grown-up and classy ways to consume this agave-based tipple.

Starting with the basic kit for your home bar, and following with the best tequila- and mezcal-makers on the planet, you'll be shopping for your tequila kit like a pro. With more margarita recipes than you can shake a cocktail shaker at, as well as a glut of amazing tequila and mezcal cocktails you have never even heard of, this is a recipe book that will change your drink repertoire for good.

Like a fine whisky, tequila should be sipped, savoured and enjoyed. With this in mind, Dan has curated over 40 tequila and mezcal recipes for the home mixologist. Featuring classics (and twists on classics) like an Old Fashioned, Tequila Sunrise and Juan Collins, to glorious new concoctions such as the Teqroni, Tequila Mockingbird and Bloody Maria, tequila will undoubtedly become your spirit of choice.

Including recipes for DIY syrups, sours, infusions and more, Tequila: Shake, Muddle, Stir will show you just how versatile this underrated liquor is, and proves there is a tequila-based tipple out there for everyone.
