Editorial Reviews:

If you've ever wondered whether to shake or stir a proper Martini, or what to do with those three bottles of flavored liqueurs gathering dust in your liquor cabinet, you will find the answer in The Bartender's Bible, the essential bartending companion created for both professional and home use.

Encyclopedia in scope, The Bartender's Bible includes all the information required to stock and equip your bar, recipes for over a thousand mixed drinks, and guidelines for how to best serve up your creations. Clear, simple instructions and a special lie-flat binding make the book easy to use; thorough cross-indexing makes any recipe easy to find.

The Bartender's Bible includesspecial chapters on "The Classics," such as the Martini and the Bloody Mary, with intriguing variations of each; "Tropical Drinks," from the Mai Tai and the PiƱa Colada to a host of exotic Daiquiris; and "Party Punches," for large gatherings. Extensive chapters on wine drinks, beer drinks, hot drinks, and nonalcoholic drinks round out the most thoruogh and thoruoghly accessible bartending guide ever created.

Summary: Comprehensive book for beginners.
Comment: This edition is useful not only for its recipes, but for its information, as well. The introduction has a similar feel to the early chapters of The Joy of Cooking in that it offers instruction on the essentials for stocking a home bar as well as comprehensive lists of equipment and glassware -- complete with illustrations. The recipes are thorough in detailing method, which is much more useful than some Internet collections and other books I've seen which only list the ingredients (and sometimes measures) for a given drink. There is also a bit of fun and education to be found here. Each chapter and most of the hallmark drinks have write-ups about their history or fun anecdotes.

I felt the need to write this review after reading another for the same title in which the reviewer aired grievance about the book not including an alphabetical list of the drinks by name. That is what the index in the back of the book is for. Maybe he just never got that far. I have several books on cocktail recipes, and this one is definitely my go-to. Having only 1001 recipes, it is incomplete, but it's the most useful one on my shelf.

Summary: Not so good
Comment: This didn't help me what so ever. I already knew what was in it... It doesn't contain any newer drinks.

Summary: Wouldn't Purchase
Comment: It took me about 2 minutes to realize this book was an awful purchase. It gives you a brief description on how to set up a bar which was not very helpful. Other than that it gives you a lot of great recipes....Great if this was 1901. The drink recipes seem to be a bit outdated and are seldomly used in a bar setting. If you are planning on becoming a serious bartending and are truly interested in learning all types of drinks, this book my not be able to help you out.

Summary: No mojitos?
Comment: The response to this gift was great, until 30 seconds later, when she realized it would not tell her how to make a mojito. Honestly, she's had enough of them she should know howe to make one ;)

Summary: BIG DISAPPOINTMENT!
Comment: With all the great classic cocktail books out there, I wonder why it is necessary for everybody to try to do a "me-to" version. Many technical errors and incorrect information. Why bother?
