Features: With the development of China's economy, especially the growth of the tourism and catering industries, bars have been booming domestically. Bartending is an established industry in Western countries, but it is a relatively new field in China. The rapid development of the bartending industry requires a large number of skilled professionals—bartenders. The technical expertise and service quality of bartenders are directly related to the quality of beverages in bars and the success or failure of these establishments. Ultimately, the competition of enterprises boils down to a competition of talent and a competition of product quality. This book is co-authored by Chen Hao and Liu Xianyong, both of whom are specially appointed lecturers and professional judges in the bartending industry by the China National Tourism Administration and the Beijing Municipal Tourism Administration. The book introduces the essential knowledge and skills for cocktail bartenders, including bartending equipment and tools, cocktail ingredients and garnishes, wine tasting and identification, basic knowledge of spirits and cocktails, fundamental bartending techniques, and 370 cocktail recipes. It also covers bartender vocational skill standards. The book is rich in content, beautifully illustrated, scientifically practical, and easy to understand. It is suitable for a wide range of beverage consumers, bartending professionals in bars and karaoke lounges, as well as for teaching and reference in relevant institutions and vocational training programs.
