Cocktail connoisseur,
Tom Sandham knows his spirits. He spends his days sampling couture cocktails served up by brilliant bartenders then writing about them for his website,
Dwink.com.
Tom's new book,
World's Best Cocktails (Jacqui Small, £30, out in October) is an extensive round-up of the finest cocktail bars across the globe and their secrets - it features 500 gorgeous recipes, from the Japanese-inspired Matcharita tea-cup cocktail to a very traditional, American, non-alcoholic mocktail that tastes divine.
Impress your dinner party guests this weekend by shaking up five of Tom's favourite cocktails, plus a few of our favourites...
