Art Of the Drink, Volume 1: Bar Essentials (2005)

You're the center of attention – all eyes are on you. Confidently selecting a couple of bottles, you pour just the right amount of each into your mixing tin, shake the cocktail with the assurance of a pro, and serve the perfect crystal-clear, ice-cold Martini with flair and style as your bewitched guests hang on your every move! This is the thrill of bartending, whether you're in a restaurant or right in your own home bar. Glistening amber Manhattans, redolent with butterscotch and cherry, created before the astonished eyes of your friends. A frothy, refreshing Bay Breeze bursting with cranberry and pineapple made to order in seconds. And the sweet mint-and-lime dream that is a Mojito transforming an afternoon on the deck into an instant getaway to a Caribbean island. All made perfectly every time, anytime!
