Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Ritz

    • peaceoutdesign on January 23, 2022

      Not a fav. I used mandarin juice instead of the OJ.

  • Abbey cocktail

    • twoyolks on August 28, 2021

      Nice and balanced but it a little basic. It felt like it was missing something.

  • Tom Collins

    • Logan92995 on July 06, 2025

      Good, and my first time making a Tom Collins. Not very gin forward as it's kind of drowned out by the lime juice and simple syrup, but still good nonetheless

  • Cuba libre

    • jeanine on May 29, 2026

      I added a dash of angostura bitters. So good!

  • Mai Tai

    • peaceoutdesign on December 07, 2021

      Use 1 oz orgeat and no simple syrup. Watch the lime because it is 1.25 oz not 1.5 ounce. Increase the OJ to 1.25 and this is a perfect Mai Tai!

  • Agent orange

    • Carrie84 on March 15, 2026

      This is delicious to sip on. The more I drink the more I love it.

  • Vieux Carré

    • peaceoutdesign on June 04, 2024

      I was intrigued by two bartenders pondering how to make a Vieux Carre. They didn't have Benedictine so they subbed in Green Chatruesse which I would never have thought of. I immediately made it when I got home, it is a Manhatten riff and I enjoyed it. This recipe is half the standard version for some reason.

  • Classic Spanish sangria

    • Baxter850 on June 17, 2024

      Great simple version

  • Spiced Jamaican Java

The Ultimate Bar Book — The bartender's bible and a James Beard nominee for the best Wine and Spirit book, 2008

The cocktail book for your home: The Ultimate Bar Book is an indispensable guide to classic cocktails and new drink recipes. Loaded with essential-to-know topics such as barware, tools, and mixing tips.

Classic cocktails and new drinks: As the mistress of mixology, the author Mittie Hellmich has the classics down for the Martini, the Bloody Mary—and the many variations such as the Dirty Martini and the Virgin Mary. And then there are all the creative new elixirs the author brings to the table, like the Tasmanian Twister Cocktail or the Citron Sparkler.

Illustrated secrets of classic cocktails and more: Illustrations show precisely what type of glass should be used for each drink. With dozens of recipes for garnishes, rims, infusions, and syrups; punches, gelatin shooters, hot drinks, and non-alcoholic beverages; and let's not forget an essential selection of hangover remedies, the Ultimate Bar Book is nothing short of top-shelf.
