Praise for The Bar Book by Jeffrey Morgenthaler:
“My favorite drinks book of the year is The Bar Book: Elements of Cocktail Technique. Mr. Morgenthaler, a well-regarded Portland, Ore.-based bartender and blogger, notes that a great cocktail requires a combination of three elements: recipe, ingredient and technique. He admits that the first two have been well-plumbed in existing books, then lasers in on the third. Just learning how to make his ingenious but simple ‘MacGyver Centrifuge’ with cheesecloth and a salad spinner to filter fruit juices is nearly worth the cover price.”
—Wayne Curtis, Wall Street Journal
“An accessible but sophisticated primer that could render the rest of the cocktail library obsolete.”
—Library Journal
