My plan for tonight's #Hyggehour is to browse Amy Stewart's amazing "spirited toast to the marriage of botany and booze." While doing so, I shall be sipping a festive, sloe gin hot toddy. ??❄️?
What are your plans?

#SummerSouls #patio Don‘t have this book but kinda wish I did ! (How‘s that downsizing going?🤦♀️) The true thing about Phoenix , we generally use our patios the other 3 seasons, NOT summer !🔥
#SummerSouls #Cocktails I can‘t get enough of vintage cocktail books ! Lots of old favorites, Rob Roy , Gimlet , Tom Collins , Zombie , Old Fashioned.
Cheers !🍸🍹
Last month of 2023‘s #roll100. 🎲 I‘m not feeling motivated by my choices for 9/90 or 53. So it‘ll only be no. 27 getting read for December.

panThis book has a lot of (often repetitive & overlapping) history to fill in the time period when the cocktail was in fashion. A better read is A History of the World in 6 Glasses, which worked better to show the influence of six specific beverages on Western history and society.
The most helpful chapters are the last 2: A Thumbnail Guide to Rum & When It‘s Cocktail Time. Overall, disappointing. But at least it‘s off my shelf!
Book 4 for #20in4
