Step Out of your Comfort Zone

The Mixologist™ Drink & Cocktail Recipes app makes it possible to step out of your comfort zone and try new drink recipes thanks to the almost 8,000 of them featured in the app. These recipes represent more than 1,000 ingredients, which means there is no shortage of variety here. Many of the ingredients used are common ones you likely already have in your house while others may require a special trip to the store. This is also a great way to check out seasonal and holiday drinks that can really help make your gathering a special one.

The app requires iOS 7.0 or later to use and there are a number of in-app purchases all priced at $0.99. These purchases provide you with additional drink recipes. There is a free version of the app available as well but it doesn't contain as many tools and features plus it is supported by ads. It seems as though customers are quite enjoying this offering giving it four out of five stars as its customer rating. It was updated last summer with a couple of small bug fixes.

Features and Tools

Besides offering users a massive collection of drink recipes the Mixologist™ Drink & Cocktail Recipes app also offers a handful of tools. First off the recipes can be viewed using Imperial or Metric units so that you aren't left confused and you can begin your experience by adding all the liquor you have on hand to the Liquor Cabinet section of the app. After you do this the app is able to search for recipes that use the ingredients you already have. The recipes are spread out over 87 different categories and you can always let the app pick a random drink for you to try. If you want to add in your own recipe this is possible as well.
