Why Must Read Tequila Mockingbird: Cocktails with a Literary Twist?
My expectations were probably too high - what I was hoping for was less just pun-names on drinks and more drinks made with an understanding of and deep love for literature. I was yearning for something such as the "Cherry Poppins" to contain more British-based liquors with a flavor associated with the story itself; basically, I wanted more than puns, which this book is abundant in. It'd have been cool for someone who spent more time reading and analyzing literature and a mixologist to be involved in the making of this instead of just renaming a bunch of existing cocktails with cute names.
