Book Reviews of 101 Margaritas
Book Review: Save your money
Summary: 1 Stars
I have never in my life bought a recipe book without an index or table of contents until this one. The drinks are not even in alphabetical order! I did not notice this when I first bought this book and browsed the different margarita recipes. However, when I decided days later to look up the recipe for a raspberry margarita I noticed the book did not have an index, a table of contents and was not in alphabetical order. What insanity! I had to hunt for the recipe. Unless you are into trying unusual concoctions like Avocado-Cilantro or Cherimoya or Blood Orange Margaritas, I recommend that you skip this book. I bought The Bartender's Black Book [$12.95 for 8th edition on Amazon] and am very pleased with it. It has over a dozen different popular Margarita recipes along with many other drink recipes and helpful drink making instructions/tips. It has a total of over 2,700 drink recipes AND the drink recipes are in alphabetical order.Book Review: That frozen concoction that helps me hang on.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a fun book. Great design and style -- so very true to its subject. The structure is informal to be sure. There's no table of contents or index. The recipes are in no apparent order which would help you to efficiently find any one in particular. But, this book is a margarita for the eyes. The design, colors, type and photography all convey the feeling of cool, laid-back, just-a-little-bit-tipsy relaxation. Flipping through its pages makes me feel almost as good as drinking one of its prescribed creations. And, oh yea, there really are some exciting recipes and loads of them. I'm going to have a blast this summer trying them out.Book Review: For the adventurous dabbler

This is an amazing compilation of margarita recipes. Who knew there could be so many delicious and mouthwatering recipes for margaritas. I've always been a classic margarita gal, but this summer I'll definitely be serving the pink lemonade or lemon meringue margarita at a Sunday brunch with good girlfriends. Cheers!Book Review: YUMMY!

We have tried a couple of the reciepes in this book and they are very good!! We will never buy another bottle of margarita mix!! We do cheat on the strawberry margarita recipe and use whole frozen strawberries instead of fresh. Your drink doesnt seem to have as many seeds in it and its not as tart.
