After Dark — Soberish Dry Bar Cocktail Book 2 (Pre-Order)

Pre-order now. Expected to arrive mid-to-late November 2026.

Round two. Still dry. Never boring.

We’ve been busy behind the bar. In our second book, we pick up where the first left off, with more sophisticated cocktails for the serious non-drinker, the sober curious, and anyone who simply wants a better drink.

Stir up a spirit-free Martini, rework the classics, and discover how adaptogens and functional spirits can set the mood for any evening. Learn how wine is evolving, why a true spritz deserves its own chapter, and how to pick the right glass every time. For nights that call for a little less, our new Low ABV chapter shows you how to pour lighter without giving up a thing.

Inside, you’ll find thirty original recipes, behind-the-bar tips for working with non-alcoholic spirits, a handy bartending glossary, and plenty of East Coast personality. Expect bold flavours, a few surprises, and absolutely no sad glasses of soda water.

This book features:
• 30 original cocktails from Atlantic Canada’s first dry bar in Halifax, Nova Scotia
• Original photography by Jenn Naus
• Chapters on adaptogen drinks, spritzes, the classics and low-ABV cocktails
• Tips for working with alcohol-free and functional spirits
• A bartending glossary and glassware guide

Find your next favourite pour. Round two is on us.
