Publisher Comments:

This is the one home bar guide you'll need--it has every drink you'll ever be asked for. See how to set up a bar, choose the right glass, plan the perfect party, and add a special, finishing touch with garnishes. Whether it's a Black Russian or a Caipirinha, you'll mix cocktails like a professional.
 
Start with a world-renowned expert's unequalled instructions for preparing virtually any cocktail anyone might ask for.

Add the essential facts of bartending with a professional's master guidance for hosting any gathering in the perfect atmosphere.

Pour in an encyclopedic collection of information about every drink, including brandy, gin, rum, tequila, and vodka; whiskey and bourbon; champagne and wine; bitters and other spirits; punches, cups, and eggnogs; liqueurs and shooters; hot drinks and nonalcoholic drinks.

Mix with Calabrese's recipes for 780 of his personal favorites, from old classics like Negroni, Bellini, and Sidecar, to new and exotic modern reinventions like Cosmopolitan and Apple Martini. And that leaves 775 more to choose from!

Stir in hours of fascinating insider tales about how all the classic drinks came to be, the romance of the drink, and glorious photos and art of a sparkling visual history.

Garnish with:

* Live-action pictorials of techniques such as shaking, floating, layering, muddling, blending

* Thirst-inciting color photos that display drinks at their most elegant

* Easy-to remember icons symbolizing each type of glass to use in every situation

* Concealed spiral binding that lays flat so you can follow recipes with your hands free
