Excellent App
I just bought this app and love it. I have been looking for a good drink recipe app and tried this. It was a little more expensive but I have spent almost as much on multiple apps that didn't cost that much but didn't work out. This app is great. It gives so much more than just recipes, it gives the how to mixing as well as the history, not too much but just right. It is an all around guide to learning how to mix, what to use as well as the recipe. Trust me, if you want to get a resource that helps you learn how to mix drinks as well as what to mix, this is the app!
Just ok
As of today I have purchases most of the bar tending applications in iTunes for the iPad. I have been trying to find the one app that has up to date drinks, shots, and fun liqueurs that you can get at today's modern bars. Unfortunate this is not that app, and this was ,by far the most expensive . In summary If you want a history of drinks this is a good app if you want an app you can use in your home bar to entertain I am not a fan. Would love to change my review if the app gets updated.
Conns: page navigation is clunky, very very limited recipes, no shot recipes at all, high cost compared to other apps and I bought on sale, no ability to plug in your bar liqueurs and it tell you what drinks you can make, old drink recipes no modern ones.t
Pros: videos are nice...issue is limited recipes, lots of pictures, I do like when shopping for gear it will take you to sites to you the items...some of those links are bad please update, No AirPlay
Great app
I just bought this app and I love it!! I love great cocktails and the recipes are great. I love that they picked the brains of great mixologists all over the US. Well worth the price. Can't wait to buy their next app...
