"It is truly beautiful - each recipe has a full page for the" according to Heather. I got this book for a friend's birthday and am now considering getting a copy for myself. It is truly beautiful - each recipe has a full page for the ingredients and the opposite page is a full-page color photo of the drink. These cocktails are a good mix between simple three-ingredient drinks to some that are a bit more complex. My friend sat flipping through the gorgeous pictures for more than an hour after she got this book. The spiral binding also is a nice touch. I highly recommend!
