Book Reviews of The Ultimate Bar Book: The Comprehensive Guide to Over 1,000 Cocktails

Book Review: Concise and well formatted reference book
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a well formatted and concise reference book for non-professionals.
It's smaller size is appreciated considering bar space.
However, it could be a bit larger in hight and width with slightly larger print.
The binding is nice and the cover is sturdy and even rich appearing.
A smaller abbreviated paperback version would be nice addition for an informal party bar.

Summary of The Ultimate Bar Book: The Comprehensive Guide to Over 1,000 Cocktails

Ultimate Bar Book is the first and only guide to classic and new drink recipes. Loaded with essential-to-know topics such as barware, tools, and mixing tips, this book has it all. As a mistress of mixology, the author has the classics down to a T -- the Martini, the Bloody Mary, plus the many variations (the Dirty Martini, the Virgin Mary). And then there are all the creative new elixirs the author brings to the table, like the Tasmanian Twister Cocktail or the Citron Sparkler. Illustrations show precisely what type of glass should be used for each drink. With dozens of recipes for garnishes, rims, infusions, and syrups; punches, gelatin shooters, hot drinks, and non-alcoholic beverages; and -- let's not forget -- an essential selection of hangover remedies, Ultimate Bar Book is nothing short of top-shelf.
