Drink: Featuring Over 1,100 Cocktail, Wine, and Spirits Recipes (History of Cocktails, Big Cocktail Book, Home Bartender Gifts, The Bar Book, Wine and … for Home Mixologists) (Ultimate Cookbooks)

This is, by far, the worst bar book that I own. I wish I was still in the window to return it, but since that has pasted, I will be lighting this book on fire.

There are numerous amounts of inconsistencies in this book, half of the recipes are incorrect in some form, and there are repeats of the same cocktail with no extra substance (e.g. the THREE gin and tonic recipes)

I would be embarrassed to be the people that were included at the end of the book as the “industry experts” that gave their interviews to this author.

Dont waste your time or money on this book. It feels likes it has been written by multiple authors (who’ve never even have had a drink before) without even knowing what the other was writing about. Very disappointed.

This book is a very varied and detailed gem, I recommend it 100%

This book is just what I needed to get out of the “neat or on the rocks” rut when hosting friends. For the price, you get a tome – a big, pretty, well-photographed, clear and organized hardcover with three ribbons to mark your favorite pages and a narrative perspective of not only an expert in the field of spirits but an obvious aficionado. The book sits very well next to your bar/countertop mixing station while your guests preview the photo of the drink you are taking the careful time to make for them with measured anticipation. Generosity and appreciation make the parties go late!

I bought this because my brother in law had one, and we really enjoyed looking at and making these drinks.
One dislike about this purchase is that his book was in a hard covered sleeve with the same pics of the front and binder edge, so kind of disappointed this book did not come with the same protection. : (

Pictures are awesome and recipes are fantastic.
