Mini Bar: Rum A Little Book of Big Drinks
By Mittie Hellmich
Photographs by Frankie Frankeny
Don't let the small size fool you — each volume in the Mini Bar series is filled with more than 50 traditional and original recipes that pack a punch. Rum lovers will break out the little umbrellas for Mittie's innovative Frozen Watermelon Daiquiri and Colada Nueva. Each title in this series describes the history and distinct characteristics of its particular alcohol. Small enough to carry on a tropical vacation or stash next to the blender, these little cocktail books are a must-have for the weekend bartender.
Mittie Hellmich is a veteran mixologist and author of The Ultimate Bar Guide, Sangria, Paradise on Ice, and Party Shots. She lives near Portland, Oregon.
