pikes cocktail book: rock ’n’ roll cocktails from one of the world’s most iconic hotels

Recreate the most popular drinks that have been shaken, stirred and swallowed at one of the world’s most unique venues.

George Michael, Freddie Mercury, Grace Jones, Fatboy Slim, Irvine Welsh, Boy George, Kate Moss, Kylie, LCD SoundSystem and countless other celebrities and rock royalty, have all sipped the cocktails served at the legendary Pikes Ibiza while sitting around its iconic pool and dancing in the in-house nightclub that used to be Freddie Mercury’s suite. The Pikes Cocktail Book tells the story of this incredible place, with drinks recipes inspired by mischief and misbehaviour at this epicentre of Balearic excess. The 65 drinks recipes are divided into chapters such as Poolside Sunset, After Midnight and The Morning After where you can sample Captain of the Night, Sunny’s Gay G&T, Golden Bird and many more.

＂Among Ibiza’s growing raft of luxury hotels, Pikes remains a characterful standout. The venue has carved a niche as a hedonistic creative hub, providing the setting for Freddie Mercury’s 41st birthday party, Wham’s Club Tropicana video and cutting-edge art and music pop-ups＂ --The FT: How to Spend It
