I don't think there exists a better manual to teach you bartending than this one. I am a bar manager now. I lend this book to servers I am interested in promoting to bartenders. Bartending In One Day helped in so many emergencies. Buy it!

I must say when I first read the title of this book I was kinda skeptical. Bartending in one day, Come on! I bought it. The truth is there is no other title that could describe this book better than this one. It really does what it says. it's a good book, woth the money.

I got this book as a housewarming gift. I never intended to use it. What a mistake that would have been!

After spending two weekends mixing drinks for friends, I have become an accomplished bartender. From what my friends tell me, I should charge a cover to get through my front door.

This book has brought my wife and I a lot of pleasure. We've enjoyed learning through Makboul's unique style. We've had a great time throwing parties, and we've become the talk of our social circle.

From what my friends say, I could tend bar professionaly right now and make some serious money. We just did this as a kick, and it has been fantastic. I wholeheartedly recommend this book!

I was about to enroll in a bartending school before I found this book. Thank you for saving me $600. I loved your way of grouping the drinks in "families". It made it so easy for me to remember them for ever.

This book is not what you'd expect. It still stresses memorization and is filled with good recipes. The practice tests are pretty much a joke. I can't see how you can expect to land a job by using this book only. Becoming an accomplished bartender after using this book is at best, a pipe dream. I am not at all satisfied with it's promises. Most of the one day period stated in the title is supposed to be spent practicing the recipes. Remove the recipes from the book, and there are very few pages of usefull information here.

Once you learn the 7 basic ways of making drinks taught in this book, you will be able to make thousands of drinks. It's better to learn the Bartending In One Day way than to learn the other guides way which always ask you to memorize, memorize, and memorize.
