karenamazon: I highly recommend this book!! Great and creatively unique recipes for a lighter style of cocktail. Most enjoyable. The surmise hit - Mai Tai Spritz - as odd as this may seem - its a favorite.

Vincent: Excellent book.

Nevertheless really annoying as they use 'once' for liquid measure and Fahrenheit degree for temperature.

Italy is inside measures standard with ml and Celsius degree

Johnny: Has a lot of history about Spritz and the Italian cocktail scene, as well as good recipes. It is a fun book and the printing is good quality. The typeface is very small, but overall this is a good purchase.

Amazon Customer: I love spritzes and this book covers the history, interesting facts and includes recipes. The cover is a cute and fun vintage picture and I angled it on the bookcase so it could be seen. Love this and even got one for my sister as a gift. She loved it too! Very happy with this purchase.

Shari M: This is a superlative book replete with interesting informative on different types of alcoholic beverages, lovely pictures and innovative aperitif recipes. I can’t wait to try every recipe in the book, but I keep pouring the very first one I tried, the Punch House Spritz, which is perfect for summer in Texas. Unless you have a very comprehensive bar, you will have to do a little scouting to procure some of the lesser known liquors, but it will be worth the effort and expense. Some bottles are pricey, but most of the drinks require only a drib or drab of each ingredient. You will wow your guests-and please yourself-with these innovative and tasty libations. Many thanks to author and chef David Leibovitz for this excellent recommendation.

Marietta Moore: This is the cutest coffee table book. My signature drink at my wedding was an Aperol Spritz so when I saw this book at Antropologie, I knew I needed it for my new apartment. I checked Amazon and the price here was way better than Anthropologie's (no surprise there).

Aesthetically, the book's quality is way better than I expected. The cover has a cool matte vintage-like texture, as do the pages, which are very thick and sturdy. The photos are absolutely gorgeous- they're art-print quality and I would pull them out and frame them if I didn't love the book itself so much. There is also a cool mix of mid century modern style illustrations in a warm, somewhat masculine palette of colors.

The writing is simple and the stories interesting. The recipes are the perfect mix of classic, modern, and DIY. It may not be a book I turn to often for recipes except occasionally in advance of a dinner party, but it's one I'm so happy to have in my collection and love leafing through when I notice it on my side table.
