I'm proud to say that The Ice E-book: Cool Cubes, Clear Spheres, and Different Chill Cocktail Crafts has been voted as a High Ten Nominee for Greatest New Cocktail or Bartending E-book at Tales of the Cocktail Spirited Awards 2024. The e book was revealed a 12 months in the past Could 23, 2023. 

This e book was rejected by each writer my agent pitched for a 12 months or so, and I used to be significantly wanting into the economics of self-publishing. Then a small writer made me a small provide and I took it. There have been some challenges working with them, however total the e book has executed nicely. I owe rather a lot to manufacturers who’ve bought a lot of copies to present out to audiences of my talks and occasions. 

Now the e book has been acknowledged by a jury of bar business consultants on the Tales of the Cocktail Spirited Awards, principally the Oscars of the world of bars and booze. The following step might be to see if it’s a top-four finalist – fingers crossed. 

I'd like to increase a heartfelt thanks to the e book's photographer Allison Webber, stylist Nan Allison, and my agent Jonah Straus.
