Summary: ok, so it's not the classics
Comment: I mean, there are the classics in here, like cosmos. But most of these are party drinks--you know, the cool drinks you wish you knew some bartender could whip up for you. The punches are the best. The best! In fact, this is my second copy, because my first got so water-logged after too many parties. What a fun book. It's not that stuffy "what a cocktail is supposed to be" book. I mean, that's great--but this is for parties, like the ones that need big pitchers of drinks, whether with alcohol or now.

Summary: Interesting book, but look out for bloopers.
Comment: Mr. Weinstein suggests serving a "Port in a Storm" (p. 174), a hot drink, on Father's Day. A hot drink in June? mmm... He also suggests serving the "Lemon Cheesecake Thick Shake" at a baby shower. With all due respect, Mr. Weinstein, ladies' parties generally feature chicken salad, diet soda, salad, and salad, and maybe a dessert. Most women wouldn't be caught dead drinking a milkshake in front of another woman. Although the drink suggestion for each type of party is a nice idea, I would find the drinks cumbersome to make, since most of the recipes serve one or two people. For a group, a punchbowl or pitcher recipe would work better.
I appreciate the G-rated drink names--Mr. Weinstein doesn't try to be cute like other cocktail book writers. I also appreciate his grouping of drinks, such as the grouping of hot drinks--coffee, hot chocolate, tea, juice. The cover photos are beautiful--I wish that there were more photos throughout the book.

Summary: Fun & Tasty Drinks - Worth Every Penny
Comment: This book has hundreds of killer drinks that will make just about any party a smash hit. There are rum drinks galore and even non-alchoholic drinks for the designated drivers in your crowd. The drinks come in a rainbow of colors, and if you don't have a set of tiki glasses to serve them in, that's okay - you can always get some on ebay!
