In the second installment of our Edible series of cookbooks, we’ve partnered with Yes Cocktail Co. For a decade, Lauren and Brandon, Co-founders of YCC, have invited us to celebrate life’s moments through craft cocktails. From spicing up home bars to bringing extra flavor to our gatherings, their mixers and inventive twists have made every pour memorable. Now, they’ve put pen to paper to share their extensive collection of cocktail recipes, and we at Edible Magazine are honored to help bring them to you. Smart, vibrant, and worldly, these drinks capture the spirit of their adventures in every glass, reminding us that no matter the place, the day, or the hour, when we’re with them, it’s always happy hour.  

From instructional pages like Tools of the Trade and DIY Cocktail Essentials; to tried-and-true cocktail recipes done the Yes Cocktail Co. way, from the rum-based Lumberjack Espresso Martini to the whiskey Sazerac, to modern, creative riffs like the whiskey-based Pink Pony Club to the Green with Envy served in a mug; and ending with a library of bar snack recipes, all pages lead to a robust, and lively, bar program right at home.
