What customers are saying :-

5 Star - Simon Difford DELIVERS
(US iTunes Review Tiki Bar TV)
....Simon's books blend masterful mixology with absolutely gorgeous graphic design...... this app has the same classy design and fantastic cocktails as Simon's books. The writing is clean and witty. The drinks? Delicious.

5 Star - Fantastic!!
(UK iTunes review)
I didn't think that this application would be up to the same standard set by the book (which is THE definitive cocktail bible), but I couldn't have been more wrong! It's every bit as informative as the book, and the fact that it's interactive - it lists the cocktails that you can make from the drinks in your cabinet - makes it even easier to use. And at the price of half a pint of beer, it's astonishingly under-priced for such a brilliant application.

5 Star - Marvelous
(UK iTunes review)
Looks as good as the books, fits in the pocket.......
