During the COVID-19 pandemic, we teamed up with 30 bartenders who created and shared their very own Gray Whale Gin cocktail recipes on the Gray Whale social media channels, a program we called the “Virtual Shift.” In this book, we gathered all these stellar cocktail recipes, beautiful cocktail portraits, and mixology tips from the bartenders themselves. You’ll find drinks for every occasion-martinis, batched cocktails, highballs, sours, and brilliant twists on gin classics, as well as some California wanderlust inspiration.
