Review:
This is SUCH a fun book! you get the basics of HOW to make different types of drinks, the utensils needed and then you get different type of drink 'recipes'. And they are present that way, which makes the book visually fun too! The drinks are broken down into different chapters: Gin & Vodka, Rum Whiskies & Brandy, Bubbles (naughty & Nice), Something Different and Mocktails. That means you get something for any occasion, both fancy and not!
I can SO see readers using this book as a party starter! For example- the Sabrina drink would be perfect for a girls night in viewing old romantic classics, like Sabrina! Or have a 'return to middle school afternoon party' (or fun Labor Day party) with the Slush Puppy drinks! The Toffee Split or the Black Velvet would be perfect for sipping on the Beach porch this Summer too! You'll find old favorites here, plus some new ones you might not know about, that will make you want to restock the liquor cabinet and start impressing your friends!
This is a super fun book and is is really almost a coffee table book, with it's nice embossed style cover, and marbled pages! It's one any recipient would be proud to leave out!
So take a step back to when making mixed drinks could be fun and check out this super fun book when it comes out next month!
