Bitterman's Field Guide to Bitters & Amari: 500 Bitters; 50 Amari; 123 Recipes for Cocktails, Food & Homemade BittersMy rating: 4 of 5 stars

This great gift from dear friends was a fun read and I will return to it in the future as a guide and reference tool. Neat tidbits on the history and science of bitters and a great little chapter on my favorite digestive, Amaris. I also loved the little table describing the different types of raw and white sugars (p. 48). Looking forward to playing with Manhattans (p. 61), Negronis (p. 64) and adding a spoonful of Campari to a dry martini (p. 183).
