The main purpose of this book is to make the cocktail an art of easy access with a never ending of mixes. To offer you the opportunity to surprise your soul mate or a group of friends, elaborating from your own home bar or even from the mise en place of your kitchen. You will have fun and connect in your social gatherings. A nice aperitif will distinguish you as a very special host. Your creations will welcome your guests. It will make the Difference and personalize your parties. A cocktail previous to dinner, will do to decompress from this world we live in full of rush and stress. We should give place to hedonism. And let’s not forget something, to know how to drink is a glamorous detail that for nothing has to do against a style of a healthy life.
When I welcome my guests at home I always like to prepare a cocktail, to my friends I make them feel bad seeing me “working”, to me I love it. A Mojito with fresh mint leaves, a Martini with a detailed chilli, or a Gin&Tonic washed in those ice cubes that look like diamonds propose you moments of relax, of talk, and most definitely of enjoyment. When I am the invited, I always love preparing cocktails. In occasions I find myself with no tools, improvise, a long and wide glass will do for a mixing glass and two glasses that fit between them could be an emergency cocktail shaker. 
A good cocktail is always a surprise for your senses. The cocktalery or mixology as it is best known in the Anglo-Saxon World possess an aura of glamour and quickly associates to a world of pleasant sensations. It’s the smile, the laugh, the pleasure of talking, to make your imagination fly.
