Book Description 

In the mood for a Summer Hummer?
How about a French Flirt or a Neon Nexus?
or Maybe even a Sin City Slider?

This book includes these and 150 more cool cocktails for a crowd—everything from classics like Sangría, Martinis, and Manhattans, to newer favorites like Kamikazes and Mudslides, to international raves such as Brazil’s Caipirinha and Cuba’s Mojito, not to mention liquor-free variations. Plus, there’s information on mixing techniques, ingredients, equipment, and glassware, hangover helpers, tips on party food for non-cooks, and a user-friendly index that lists recipes by ingredients.

Serving pitcher drinks is an ingeniously effortless way to entertain and still have fun at your own party. It’s an idea whose time has come—in fact, it’s long overdue. No doubt about it, a premixed pitcher of drinks is a huge asset to any gathering. Making individual cocktails not only takes time, but removes you from the action. So mix up a batch of pitcher drinks and join in the party. They’re stylish, fun, and easy, and they definitely take the angst out of entertaining!

Review 

From Booklist

Big barbecue events call for pitcherfuls of drinks to wash down all those spicy meats. Sharon Tyler Herbst comes to the rescue with The Ultimate Guide to Pitcher Drinks. Anyone who has a crowd of guests with thirsts to quench will find lots of inspiration here to keep a party well lubricated. Nearly half the volume consists of definitions of drink terms, ingredients, techniques, and garnishes, which make it ideal for reference. Drinks range from martinis and cosmopolitans through tropical favorites to sweet and ultracreamy concoctions. There are a few nonalcoholic libations. Popular Long Island iced tea appears, but not the celebrated Fish House Punch. Mark Knoblauch
