About the
Bartender’s
Guide
Introduction
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-Hula-Hicky-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 se-
crets of mixology, and converting jiggers
to dashes and teaspoons to ponies. And
every recipe shows you what kind of
glass or mug to use.
It’s easy to do. This User’s Manual shows
you how. Have fun!
