AIR TIMES:

Sunrise, Sunset
One thing's for sure: this ain't just another Tequila Sunrise. The Caribbean classic takes a southwestern spin when we teach you how to make a spicy Desert Sand rim. And why stop there? Rims are a great way to dress up any cocktail. Then, if you're bored with your average lemon twist, wait until we show you how to heat things up.

For your elementary education, we've put together a list of must-read bar books and magazines. From classics to contemporary, this is all the literature you'll need to get you up to speed. You won't believe which creature-of-the-sea provides an ingredient for a cocktail so wild it could only be called the XXX Martini. And how to get creative with flavors you can find in your own kitchen.

Next, we'll show you how to use some common bar tools like a pro. We take the befuddle out of the muddler, then show you how to put it to good use crafting the perfect Mojito. And nothing goes better with a great cocktail than a bite on the side. Find out how to pair cocktails with your favorite foods.

And at last: the scoop on why you might find a worm at the bottom of your tequila bottle. Discover where tequila gets its unique flavor and then choose your favorite after pouring yourself a tequila flight.
