With three editions of Bourbon Mixology published, author Steve Akley wanted to expand beyond just signature bourbon cocktails from iconic bars. This time he wanted to take a look at themed drinks. Two categories that seemed like natural fits were coffee-themed and holiday-themed creations. Coffee is a drink enjoyed by so many people in the morning it's amazing it hasn't expanded further into the cocktail world. Steve has 19 bars sharing their signature coffee cocktail with you. Another area he thought would be good to focus on was holiday-themed cocktails. Everyone attends parties around the holidays and what better way to celebrate the season than by sharing signature cocktails from some of America's best known bars. In total, 32 bars are featured. This list includes: Coffee Mixology The Brooklynite/San Antonio Buffalo Proper/Buffalo Coffee House Cafe/Dallas Dandelion Market/Charlotte Elixir/San Francisco Establishment/Atlanta Full Throttle Saloon/Sturgis The Honeymoon/Houston Mr. C's Irish Pub/Houston Piastra/Marietta (Atlanta) The Red Rabbit Kitchen and Bar/Sacramento The Roosevelt Room/Austin Spenard Roadhouse/Anchorage Talbott Tavern/Bardstown Tavern Law/Seattle The Third Man/New York Trenchermen/Chicago Vanguard Lounge/Las Vegas The Way Station/Brooklyn Holiday Mixology 40 Steak and Seafood/Bismarck 116 Crown/New Haven Boiler Room/Fargo Butch McGuire's/Chicago Cardinal Tavern/Baltimore Dickie Brennan's Steakhouse/New Orleans Herbie's Vintage 72/Saint Louis Novela/San Francisco The Royal Mile/Des Moines Sloppy Joe's/Key West Supply and Demand/Atlanta Urban Tree Cidery/Atlanta Whiskey Bar/Milwaukee"
