Double Take
Bring your omnivorous and vegetarian friends to the same table with the fabulous meals in Double Take. Each recipe produces two versions of the same dish: one vegetarian and one containing meat. A.J. Rathbun and Jeremy Holt cook up such tantalizing fare as Pate Your Way, Bacon and Cheese Tartlets, Chicken or No-Chicken Noodle Soup, Double Standards Caesar Salad, Po'Boys, Polenta Gorgonzola with Mushrooms and Sopressata, Grilled Stuffed Radicchio, and Corny Corn Pudding. Double Take is a doubly delicious solution to a modern dining dilemma.

Dark Spirits
With their assertive flavors and rich colors, dark spirits have long been revered by connoisseurs. Now, they are experiencing a surge in popularity that has brought them to the attention of a wide audience, including cocktail enthusiasts of all ages. In the same style as the IACP award-winning Good Spirits, Dark Spirits presents 200 recipes that use whiskey (Scotch, bourbon, rye), brandy (Cognac, Armagnac), and dark rum as their bases. With creations such as the Sweet Louise, the Dark and Stormy, and the Rum Rascal, and with beautifully illustrated with color photographs by Melissa Punch throughout, it's ideal for any cocktail lover or party thrower.

Wine Cocktails
Wine cocktails have long been a part of the cocktail culture in Europe, and in this 50-recipe, full-color book, cocktail connoisseur A.J. Rathbun shows Americans how easy it is to create memorable cocktails with more than just Champagne. Recipes make use of the many wine varietals, liquors, liqueurs, and fresh fruits and other mixers that have become readily available in recent years to make such drinks as Aloha Punch, Blue Train, Sake'd Saint, Whistling Orange, and Cactus Berry-unique and delicious alternatives to the conventional cocktail!
