Women's Libation!
Women's Libation!: Cocktails to Celebrate a Woman's Right to Booze | Merrily Grashin
8 posts | 1 read | 9 to read
The perfect mix of punny humor, feminist verve, and practical instruction, Women's Libation! is a cocktail guide for the lady who likes to shake things up (and not just her martinis). In it, Brooklyn-based illustrator and long-time bartender Merrily Grashin toasts the feminist heroes who've come before us and the social movements that have helped shape us, honoring each with a delicious, imaginative cocktail. Beautifully appointed in a paper-over-board package with two-color interiors, each spread features an original illustration for every boozy beverage and a brief reflection on the historical figure, event, or movement in women's history on which the drink is based. With new twists on classic cocktails as well as inventive new libations, Grashin's recipes will educate you as you imbibe, including such gems as: Joan of Arc & Stormy Emma Gold-Manhattan Ros the Riveter Mosc-N.O.W. Mule Margaret Sanger-ia Featuring 75 recipes that even the novice bartender can make at home, Women's Libation! is the perfect host gift to share at a party or to give to a feminist friend in need of some cheer.

Today was Nashville‘s Women‘s Day on the Hill and my group (TN Coalition to End Domestic and Sexual Violence) helped host Tarana Burke as our speaker. Tarana is the founder of the international #metoo movement. What a force women are when we come together- have an amazing Women‘s Week littens and read great literature by and about women!💪

Got turned down for this ARC a little while ago which I was sliiiiiightly very bitter over but now I have it in my hands!!! Feminism! Drinking! Two of my favorite things in one cute little book.

In other news, today is National Pancake Day and we celebrated by making pancakes for dinner (my all time fav pancake recipe is from that Harry Potter cookbook. YOM) and now I'm suffering from some pretty awful heartburn. No regrets yet. Will update.

"Fighting for the rights of women means nothing if you're not fighting for the rights of people of all gender expressions, races, religions, sexualities, ethnicities, socioeconomic statuses, and abilities."

This is a cocktail book that makes cheesy feminist puns off of real drinks with a statement on the importance of intersectionality in the introduction.
