Maran Illustrated Bartending Order Now

This book is the best of all bar tending books out there. My boyfriend and I wanted a book to help us to learn to make our favorite cocktails instead of going out all the time. We originally saw it at a book store but decided to buy it from Amazon. Not only are the recipes detailed but the pictures are excellent. You will know if you made the drink right by comparing it to the picture in the book. Here are the other awesome features of this book:

*The recipes are extremely easy to follow and thoroughly explain the preparation.

*There is an introduction to each type of liquor, its different forms and the history behind it.

*It lists all liqueurs(which compliment liquor) with their origins and uses.

*All tools that you could ever possibly need for your home bar are discussed including glassware and what each glass is used for.

After reading this book I can easily make just about any drink out there. I have also started creating my own drinks by combining liquors and liqueurs that I have learned to identify by the flavor and consumption listed in this book.

If you really want to have a good time making your own drinks without the headache and confusion this book is definitely the one to get!Get more detail about Maran Illustrated Bartending.

Hot Drinks: Cider, Coffee, Tea, Hot Chocolate, Spiced Punch, Spirits Right now

Whether you're looking for a delicious coffee or chocolate drink, a variation on the usual teas, a spiced punch, or some creative uses for spirits, you'll find something in here to serve at your holiday parties. Every drink we tried from this book was wholly delicious, such as Winter Twilight, which includes pomegranate juice and Chambord. I wouldn't particularly recommend this book for folks who don't like alcohol, however, as many of the recipes, even those found outside of the obviously spirit-based chapter ("merry-making cocktails") include a fair amount of alcohol.

Other chapters include chocolates and coffees, teas tonics and tisanes, welcome cups and party punches, and winter warmers and sweet dreamers. Thankfully since this isn't a huge book it doesn't spend much space on tried-and-true recipes; instead it dives straight into some nifty and unusual temptations. One of my favorites was 'tres leches'---a concoction that includes banana, orange juice, the traditional three types of milk referred to in the title, and several other surprising ingredients. I was slightly dubious at the combination, but it was amazing! Another fantastic drink, called 'toasted caramel,' involves the sublime dulche de leche, as well as the wonderful combination of Frangelico and Amaretto.

The table of contents lists each drink by name, and the index allows you to search for drinks by ingredient. The book is small and attractive, definitely a contender if you're looking for a delicious little gift cookbook for someone. The photos are beautiful, the layout is clean and easy to use, and the recipes seem well-tested.Get more detail about Hot Drinks: Cider, Coffee, Tea, Hot Chocolate, Spiced Punch, Spirits.

Low Price Getting the Best out of Your Juicer

I just started juicing and wanted a basic Juice book to start with. This book was perfect. I didn't want to spend hours reading about the wonders of juicing and all that sort of fluff. This book has very little fluff then talks about what nutrition most fruits and veggies offer in alphabetical order. There are also recipes separated by type of problems you have, along with just good tasting recipes. So now, when my husband asks why I'm adding parsley to his orange juice, I can pop open my book and tell him "It's loaded with chlorophyll, vitamins A & C, and a host of minerals including calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium and sulpher."

Save Absinthe: History in a Bottle

I've owned this book since it's original publication. It appears a bit fashionable to criticize some aspects of this book but it predates the entire renewed interest in this drink by a good 20 years. Yes, there were small aspects that irked me, like menitioning ancient sources by author but not by text, or text and not by author, but this is primarily a work about the 19th century, with a few decades of the 18th and 20th acting as bookends.

The one thing that should be read with skepticism, now, is what is essentially an appendix (as I recall) "proving" a similarity between thujone and THC. The study the argument is based on, which dates from the 1970s, has been dismissed by more recent study.

This in no way detracts from what is a delightful book. Lavish and highly entertaining. Get more detail about Absinthe: History in a Bottle.
