The solution, though, is simple: batch it! In this fun collection, Maggie Hoffman offers 65 delicious and creative cocktails that you don't have to stir or shake to order; rather, they are designed to stay fresh when made ahead and served out of a pitcher. Recipes such as Tongue in Cheek (gin, Meyer lemon, thyme, Cocchi Rosa), Friendly Fires (mezcal, chile vodka, watermelon, lime), Birds & Bees Punch (rum, cucumber, green tea, lemon), and even alcohol-free options are organized by flavor profile--herbal, boozy, bitter, fruity and tart, and so on--to make choosing and whipping up a perfect pitcher of cocktails a total breeze.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Weekend entertainers and professional bartenders alike will benefit from this book; it's an outstanding collection for all tastes and occasions."<br><b>-- <i>Publishers Weekly</i>, Starred Review</b> <p/>"After years of writing about drinks and mixing them herself, Maggie Hoffman's shared tips, tricks and recipes from trendsetting bartenders all over the country in this beautifully-photographed handbook for hosts.
