Book Reviews of The Bartender's Black Book, Eighth Edition: 2,800 New and Classic Recipes

Book Review: The best book ever!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm an aspiring bartender and like most people, I bought other bartender recipe books. But the Bartender's Black Book is the best one. It has some raunchy drink names, some which I can't repeat (LOL) and you have your classic drinks. There are different variations of some, like "Sex on the Beach".

The best thing about this book is that they do not list the brand names! Most books list brand names and this book lets you make the recipe using whatever brand name liquor you want. What is also good about this book is tips for customers who are always trying to get the bartender's attention and how to be a good tipper. Also in the back of the book is a bartender glossary, some terms are funny, some are informative if you are working at a restaurant or a club.

I look forward to the next edition.

Summary of The Bartender's Black Book, Eighth Edition: 2,800 New and Classic Recipes

The best bartender's guide turns eight with this new edition, bringing its total recipe count to 2,800, more than doubling any other drink recipe book. Everything classic and obscure are here (martinis, frozen and coffee drinks, shooters, punches, flavored vodkas, gins, rums, cognac, wine, novelty drinks, etc.) with 150 brand new additions. Also new to eighth edition are: more advice for the professional bartender; a newly expanded wine section with Robert M. Parker, Jr.'s Wine Vintage Guide, "Parker Speaks on Wine," a glossary of wine terms, and Parker's World's Greatest Wine Values; and an expanded glossary, beer section, and cognac guide. And of course all the features that's made it the best selling drink recipe book on the market today are still there: index by ingredients; spiral bound for simultaneous pouring and reading; a complete list of martinis; detailed mixing instructions; sections on hot drinks, frozen drinks, beers, ales, lagers, and "malternatives; " and a list of all drink-specific garnishes.
