The Home Bartender: The Third Edition: 200+ Cocktails Made with Four Ingredients or Less Hardcover – September 12, 2023

Great bar addition. Has tons of recipes grouped by alcohol. I love the variety of recipes. Instructions are thorough. This is great if you are into trying new drinks. This would also make a wonderful gift.

Bookshelf is full of recipes for those party drinks. Easy to read, quality book.

Overall - my go-to for cocktailsThings I liked - love the sections for liquor types, love the pictures, I have a few favorite recipes that are my go-to's for casual nights in and for parties, love the "1 part, 2 parts, 1 part" measuring for multiple drinksThings I didn't like - some of the cocktails were not to my liking, but I figured out pretty quick if the drink was too syrupy or not my taste. I didn't like that there wasn't a tip on how to make large batch cocktails or make ahead for large gatheringsGreat way to get started on your bar and making specialty cocktails. Hope they come out with a shooter version!

I purchased this for a nephew who is working on being a mixologist. He's going to love this book. It's a hard cover book and has many recipes for him to try. The colored photos in the book are very well done, and show the reader exactly what the drink should look like.

Technically it's correct, in that each cocktail only uses a handful of ingredients, but to make many of these cocktails you'll still need several bottles of various liquors- not just the basics (vodka, gin, rum, tequila) but variations (gold tequila, coconut rum) and liqueurs (blue curacao, campari, vermouth).I appreciate that nearly every recipe has a photo and that they are for the most part grouped by base alcohol.I wish the "virgin" section were a little more extensive, but there are other books for mocktails. At least this book has a listing of all the virgin cocktails that are included so they are somewhat easy to find.

This book is fantastic ! I am not a big drinker but my friends and I like to try news drinks when we have events. That book has a hard cover and heavy , sturdy pages so I believe it will last. The pictures are beautiful . Each page has a picture of a drink with what you need to do it and instructions ( 450 pages !) I don t know how to make a cocktail but the instructions are so simple that you can t go wrong. We are having a lot of fun experiencing. I do not regret buying this book at all.

The pictures are amazing and simple to follow recipes to make amazing drinks! We use this book all the time !

Excellent recipe book, almost anything you can think of is here
