Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this book for the drink recipes. The snacks are lagniappe. The introduction is well-written and provides insights into the city and some must-have bar info.
The drinks span the classics, even one form the late 19th century that I;d never heard of. There are new classics and sections for frozen and coffee drinks. The authors were nice enough to include some non-alcoholic beverages.
Use this book to round out your bar recipes or to make sure you're covered for any New Orleans themed party. There are some pictures, I'd prefer one for every drink.
