Highballs High Heels A Girls Guide to the Art of Cocktails

From the trio that shook things up with Atomic Cocktails comes the latest in lounge-wear that every party-girl will be sporting-the cocktail. The humour's poured on with a strong hand in recipes such as Chocolate-Mint Hormone Replacement Therapy or Boy Toy Martini. And for the girl who knows her limits, there's a final chapter on mocktails that gives up the fun without the consequences.Mentors such as Bridget Jones and Carrie from Sex & the City know that today's bright young things want to Holly Golightly into that good night. This book speaks directly to the independent, but feminine, city woman. There is a must-read essay on women and the art of drinking with style, and a guide for planning cocktail parties, dinners and summer celebrations with suggestions for music and decorations to set the mood. All the bar paraphernalia is introduced, including a chart of appropriate glassware and mixer measurements-the two-finger rule does not apply!Brooks, Karen is the author of 'Highballs High Heels A Girls Guide to the Art of Cocktails' with ISBN 9780811830171 and ISBN 0811830179.
