5 out of 5 stars The Whole Earth Catalog of Drinks   February 26, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Over 400 pages of tips, techniques, a massive section on drinks (with pictures), spirits reviews and a guide to the worlds best cocktail bars. Heavy enough to qualify as a weapon in most jurisdictions, it is solidly bound, well laid out, and printed in a large format. So unlike most drinks books, it is easy to read, nicely indexed in various ways, and can be used as a reference for years to come without falling apart.
As a repository of all cocktail knowledge and wisdom it easily surpasses the Mr. Boston Bartenders Guide (long considered an industry standard manual and now in its 66th edition), in quality, depth, breadth and sheer numbers of cocktails. If you are going to buy any cocktail book, this is the one to have.



5 out of 5 stars Excellent guide to making drinks!   February 18, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

This is an excellent guide to making drinks, and with 2250 of them, there are plenty of drinks to make. Unlike many other cocktail recipe books this one sets itself apart by having each drink rated on a 5 point scale, has a short comment about each drink, and has a color photo of every single drink in the book right next to the recipe. Compared to #6 there are more drinks, including drinks using very recent ingredients such as St. Germaine Elderflower liqueur. You will quite likely not have the ingredients to make a large portion of the drinks in this book, but it will give you ideas on what to pick up the next time you're at the liquor store. An excellent book if you are mostly looking for a huge list of recipes. The index by ingredient is also very useful, and there is a small section on how to mix drinks and a list of good bars in some cities.
