Cocktails & Kicktails
Hugh Stewart
This beautifully illustrated book contains twenty-three cocktail recipes, each accompanied by a humorous poem and back-story behind its creation. The book was inspired by a delightfully witty poem by Ogden Nash called "A Drink With Something In It" and each of the poems in the book follows the same rhyming pattern. Also included are tips on ingredients and the cocktail making paraphernalia needed to make the perfect cocktail. The book ends appropriately enough with some rather unorthodox hangover cures. The book's title? One of legendary actress Mae West's famous lines was: "This kicktail's got a cock like a mule". In Hugh's family, cocktails have always been known as kicktails. The book is accompanied by an App, downloadable to smartphone or tablet, that contains 400 recipes for cocktails and alcohol-free "mocktails", including all of the recipes in the book. It contains a host of useful features to plan your cocktail party with panache.
