Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've read this book from cover to cover and find the majority of drinks to my liking. So far I've tried eight recipes -- all winners. My friends liked them too. I particularly like the Christmas Cosmo, Candy Cane Martini, White Christmas, and Grinch (an odd sort of drink in color and flavor but very amusing if you like Midori and want an excuse to eat maraschino cherries).
The non-alcoholic hot drinks are very comforting, especially on cold winter evenings.
I'm a sucker for beautiful photos in recipe books and this book doesn't disappoint, but I wondered if my efforts would look as beautiful as the photos. Answer: they did. I'm looking forward to working my way through the rest of the recipes that caught my eye and taste buds.
