Chic Cocktail Books 

A great cocktail or tasting book should educate, delight, and look just as beautiful on your shelf as it is engaging to read. The Whiskey Bible by Noah Rothbaum is a 600+ page deep dive into whiskey’s history, culture, and cocktails, blending accessible storytelling with expert knowledge, making it essential for enthusiasts and curious sippers alike. How to Taste by Mandy Naglich guides readers to explore flavor and savor life, teaching you to engage your senses with food, wine, and cocktails in a way that’s fun, memorable, and deeply satisfying.

Featuring over 100 recipes from the world’s most creative bartenders, this handbook provides insider knowledge on fresh ingredients, multi-functional infusions, and syrups—perfect for elevating cocktails at home, with or without alcohol.

Scentini Espresso Martini Candles 

My love for the espresso martini hasn’t dwindled since it first took over the scene. What better way to pay homage to one of my favorite drinks than having one sit on my mantle at all times—in candle form. Meet The Original Espresso Martini Candle, handmade in Tampa, Florida. Perfectly scented to replicate the aroma of freshly brewed espresso, each candle is crafted in-house and finished with three real coffee beans for health, wealth, and happiness. Even the 9.25-ounce glass is part of the experience—an authentic martini glass designed to be reused long after the candle has burned down. Just don’t drink one too many real espresso martinis and mistake it for a real one!
