‘What people fail to realise is that you can usually make a perfectly acceptable drink just out of what you have knocking around in the kitchen,’ says Sam Bompas, co-author of the book. ‘You don’t have to be a cocktail bore to make a cracking drink.’

Cocktails With Bompas & Parr is a simple manual showing how to make affordable cocktails at home. For more on how people are socialising at home more frequently, read our Homedulgence macrotrend report.
