Product Description
Today’s diners and drinkers are seeing a bold new integration of culinary art and cocktail culture. Market-Fresh Mixology shows how fabulous additions from the farmer’s market, garden, or pantry can elevate classic cocktails to the next level. It introduces an entirely new dimension to the ideal of seasonal cocktails, with a clean, contemporary approach that uses fine spirits and fresh ingredients to create cocktails for every occasion. Hot day? Blustery night? Snowbound? No matter what the weather, season, or event, Market-Fresh Mixology offers a recipe, from the refreshing summer mojito to the cozy hot buttered rum, that’s as easy to follow as it is delicious. With its gorgeous full color photos, the book is a treat for the eyes, but it’s also eminently practical, with tips on cocktail mixing techniques, garnishes, enhancements, glassware, and bar tools, as well as amusing lore surrounding classic cocktails.

5 out of 5 stars The Seminal Work on Fresh Mixology   August 9, 2008
"Market-Fresh Mixology" is a creative tour de force, a collection of seasonal cocktails so stunning in appearance and brilliant in character that they could only have been devised by Bridget Albert. The inimitable Ms. Albert is one of the country's most celebrated and esteemed mixologists, and this guide on how to create drinks that sizzle and pop with vitality proves the depth of her talent.

I've spent more than 25 years working one side of the bar or the other, so I think I know my way around a mixed drink. After preparing a few of the cocktails in Bridget's book at our offices, I can now say without reservation that they all looked, smelled, and tasted like a perfect slice of heaven.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who believes life is too short to suffer lackluster cocktails.

5 out of 5 stars Market-Fresh Delicious   July 29, 2008
I brought a copy of Market Fresh Mixology: Cocktails for Every Season along on a recent family vacation to our lake house. The Summer cocktails were a hit with our crowd. Everyone especially enjoyed the Watermelon Margarita. Simple, fresh, delicious. The recipes are well-organized, easy to follow and great to drink. Even though I am not an expert like the book's authors the recipes did not intimidate me. This book is going to become a staple in my house. I believe every party should have a signature cocktail-I am now armed with one or more for each season. Beautiful gift book. I look forward to Bridget Albert's and Mary Barranco's next collaboration.

Market-Fresh Mixology: Cocktails for Every Season
AMAZING!! This is not your typical cocktail recipe guide but rather a map for an inspiring journey that takes you where simple, pure, fresh and flavorful take on a whole new meaning. Having only tried the Summer Season thus far,Bridget Albert and Mary Barranco definitely show you how to add sunshine to cloudy days and savor the tastes that can literally transport you to a tropical paradise (Blueberry Lavendar Mojito) or a front porch swing of a rustic farmhouse(Gooseberry Lemonade). The "Home Bar Essentials" chapter sets the stage for success for even the most novice host and the easy tool kits found with each recipe are invaluable! As much as I am enjoying summer, Autumn's recipe for Cozy Pomegranate Cider and a log on the fire sounds like a great combination! I can hardly wait to have a Harvest Party!



5 out of 5 stars Fresh, Inspired Ideas   July 8, 2008

This book is filled with great ideas (and great photos - talk about cocktail porn!). The instructions are easy to follow, with very consistent results. Every drink I've tried has been fantastic (and popular with my guests), and I can't say that about most cocktail recipe books in my collection!


5 out of 5 stars A "Must-Have" at your bar!   July 7, 2008
Market Fresh Mixology is a brilliant interpretation of how cocktails SHOULD be made. I enjoy the way that Bridget Albert creates a conteporary twist on the classics. The classic cocktails represented are also preceded by a brief explanation of the cocktail and makes the reader aware of it's place in world history. I also enjoyed how the book is broken down into winter, spring, summer, and autumn based on the produce that is best for that season. This book is a must-have in your home bar or kitchen!
