"I only drink Champagne on two occasions. When I am in love, and when I am not."
Coco Chanel
The cocktail, aperitif, feeling merry, having a tipple or a little glass of "something" at wine 'o clock on a Sunday afternoon has been the subject and centre of much glee for centuries. From Coco Chanel to Ernest Hemmingway, both can agree that there's something delightful about taking some bubbles, liqours or wine and creating a special drink for a sometimes ordinary occasion.
Within this book of quotes and quips, trivia and tips, is a collection of cocktail recipes that will inspire you to recreate them at home, all in celebration of our favourite muse: Booze.
