 everything but the kitchen sink - if you can find it December 1, 2008
Tons and tons of recipes - problem is, there in no order other than alphabetical (and the given names for most cocktail have no logical reason for being called as they are), which is useless if you're trying to find varieties of a certain kind of cocktail. So you'll end up having to go through all 2500 or whatever recipes to find the 6 cosmo recipes you want. Not good. Just not very useful.
It depends on how you want to use this book November 1, 2008
Well, it depends on what you want to use this book for. It's great if you're a bartender at a restaurant and someone orders a cocktail that you've never heard of before, but for the home mixologist there are better books. You will know how to make every cocktail on the planet but not all that well and not with any flair!
 absolutely stunning October 18, 2008
this book is absolutely great!
I have these books, Original Guide to American Cocktails by Robert Plotkin, Maran Illustrated Bartending, Craft of Cocktails Dale DeGroff, Joy of Mixology By GAry regan and Bartenders Black Book!!!
out of these six books Stephen Cunningham's Bartenders Black Book is my favourite one!!
I work on a cruise line as a bartender almost six years and this book is under my shelf, part of my tool kit!!!
I would strongly recommend to everyone, there are brands listed, you use what you have in your bar, absolutely amazing!!!!
Perfect for the novice mixologist October 17, 2008
My husband and I decided to "stock our bar", but we didn't have a good book to use as a reference tool to make use of the variety of things we purchased. This book is easy to use and easy to follow.
Informative book for amateurs July 25, 2008
This is an informative book that is fairly easy to use. You can search based on what kind of alcohol you have, if you want frozen or mixed drinks, and then just look up the drink (they're all listed in alphabetical order, regardless of what type of drink it is). There are also suggestions on drinks and tipping bartenders. And there's a nice section about wines, too (although I'm not quite sure how to read that). Great buy!
