Synopsis:

One look at the bright, colorful pages here--with an array of traditional and trendy drinks in sunny yellows, jewel-like greens, shimmery golds, rich blues and reds, and hot tropical shades--and you'll know you've come to the right place to make your party swing! As delicious as they are beautiful, these recipes for rum, brandy, gin, vodka, whisky, champagne, and other cocktails will turn you into a bartender par excellence. After introductory information on equipment, glasses, ingredients, trimmings, and techniques (shaken, stirred, or poured), comes a parade of taste sensations: a classic Mai Tai or Piña Colada to cool a summer evening; luscious, rich Chocolate Rum; an elegant White Lady and simple Gin Fizz; Martinis, sweet, dry, and medium; Bloody Mary for brunch; plus Sangria, a Mint Julep, Banana Bomber, Cactus Flower, and non-alcoholic thirst-quenchers for drivers and youngsters. An invaluable fount of practical knowledge and creative ideas for today's best.
