Simply awesome.

Great app. Very easy to use. Great recipes! Can't wait to try them all.


Indispensable

This app would be a bargain at twice the price. Having the ability to reference Jeff Berry's recipes at any time - in the home bar or on the go - is a luxury. Great features for filtering, searching, and syncing, as well as keeping track of your ingredient inventory. Highly recommended.


Worth the money

This app is really well thought-out. Managing your inventory is simple, yet more thorough than any other home bar app I've found. Its ingredients and substitution database is extensive. Even reading through the ingredients and recipes databases is actually fun and enlightening. Inventory is not just a simplistic "yes I have this/no I don't" interface like other apps. Each ingredient in the database has a dedicated page with info, suggested substitutions from your inventory, and recipes in which it is either usable or specified. Different parts of the app are linked together in this way which makes it extremely usable. Drink recipes contain history, trivia, vintage artwork. It's just on a different level than other similar apps. Worth every penny and makes me want to buy the other apps from this publisher. To the developer - I appreciate your efforts.


Tiki bible in an app

SunOnWater11

$10 is worth it! All of BBB's knowledge in one app. Photos and histories for EVERY drink. You can list your "inventory" and it will list which drinks you can make. Also it will actively sub in what you have, for what you dont. Even more handy, it gives you a "bio" for many of the ingredients and which you should buy and why. Much of the stuff in stores today is fake mass produced stuff without quality. This app will steer you towards the tried and true to stock your bar. Effing brilliant!


Easily worth the price

This app is amazing. First, it has all the content of multiple great books on tiki drinks including beautiful photographs and a staggering array of recipes. Second, the app has a well considered inventory function. You can input your bar inventory and get a clear list of everything you can make, plus guidance on what what to shop for to expand your options. It even cleverly suggests substitutions when needed! Third, this app is part of a family of apps with a similar focus. The inventory you maintain in one MixologyTech app can sync to others. This was a game changer for me and I have gone on to buy several of these apps. This one is by far the coolest but they are all well done and help compliment each other. I may never buy a cocktail book again.


Excellent resource

Coneyfreak

This is the best resource bar none for rum and tiki drinks. The extensive collection of Beachbum Berry recipes is fantastic and the ability to flag, favorite, search by ingredient, and list the recipes you can make with your inventory on hand makes the my first go-to when mixing. The recent update allowing notes on individual recipes made me push this from 4 to 5 stars. Fantastic, thank you!


Best cocktail app I've seen

Converted to GTD

One of the most expensive apps I've bought but worth every penny. Has every feature I've wanted, all in a beautiful interface with tons of info. Intelligent ingredient substitutes, categories, photos. A polished app.


Best Rum Rhapsodie Recipe App!!

J4shiner

Thank you to Jeff Berry for doing the legwork for those of us that love these "tiki" drinks! This app has all the genuine original recipes for most of the worlds best drinks. Love the fact you can add your own notes. Especially love the option to have separate lists for different occasions/parties/etc... Thanks again Jeff!!!


Vacation at home!

Reliable recipes that make delicious drinks, and the integration with the other apps from Martin Doudoroff is outstanding. I can't recommend his apps highly enough. I would much rather have an app with a well-curated selection of high quality recipes, than an app with thousands of cocktails of questionable quality. Moreover, the app is well thought out, with extremely useful features. I particularly appreciate that this app has a number of lower-alcohol recipes, and that despite the reputation of most tiki drinks, not all of these recipes are sweet. All of them are complex and well-rounded. I've even e-mailed Martin a couple of times and immediately received friendly and helpful responses. I've purchased three of his apps and expect to add another 2 or 3 fairly soon. After using these apps, I don't want to use anything else. I know I'm gushing, but they are honestly that good. Quick hint: a number of these recipes call for "Jamaican dark rum". Yes, you can use Myer's Dark, but it's not ideal. Coruba dark is a bit better, but try mixing 1/3 Smith & Cross Navy Rum with 2/3 Appleton Signature or Reserve rum, if you can. There is a reason the recipes call for Jamaican rum, not just dark rum. Jamaican rum tends to be...funky. Open a bottle of Smith & Cross and you will immediately know what I mean. On its own it can overwhelm recipes, but mixed with a less overpowering Jamaican rum, its perfect.


Great app!

Nice app for tiki cocktail and ingredient recipes from scratch. Great help to be able to plug in the ingredients on hand and identify which recipes you can make!
