BTG-110
Introduction
Key Guide
Would you like to make classic mixed drinks such as a Mimosa or a Piña Colada? Or how about fun new drinks such as a Nancy Friedman's Green Meanie, a Yaka-Hula­Hicky-Dula, or a Zack is Back with the Zwack?
Well, you’re in luck! Using the Bartender’s Guide, you can learn how to make everything from an Aalborg Sour to an XYZ Cocktail, from a Harvey Wallbanger to a Wally Harvbanger.
You can also learn about liquors, the secrets of mixology, and converting jiggers to dashes and teaspoons to ponies. And every recipe tells you what kind of glass or mug to use.
It’s easy to do. This User’s Guide shows you how. Have fun!
