Helpful Tool Rating:
4 / 5
Not being very knowleadgable about drinks and what they are made of, I found this book to be especially helpful. It described the art of making cocktails and provided useful information for people who would like to concoct their own drinks at home. The number of recipes included is extensive, nicely divided into subcategories like "mixed drinks" or "shots", etc. The only downside of the book is that it is not always clear about the precise amounts a person should use of each ingredient. For example it vould say "1 shot of Amaretto" and below that as the next ingredient simply "Sour Mix". But how much? So in my opinion the book could use some work, but it is helpful even the way it is.
The ONLY Bartending Guide You'll Ever Want or Need Rating:
5 / 5
All those other guides are confusing and irritating. This is THE GUIDE. Easy and fun to read. For either the professional or home bartender this is the one. It helped me become a master mixer for whenever I have friends and family over for cocktails!

5 / 5
The Perfect Cocktail has been the most helpful guide that I have used in my 5 yr. of bartending. It is a simple breakdown of the making and selling of drinks. It is perfect for a basic tavern because the ingredients are basic, while other guides consist of recipes/products that would be more likely to be called for/in stock at a more formal establishment. The best tip I've gotten from this book is not to wad up my tips, to lay them flat to save time counting .
