Buzzworthy Cocktail Recipes

From the author of Free the Tipple comes another dazzling cocktail collection—this time celebrating the brilliance, wit, and spirit of the world’s most legendary women writers.

With 50 imaginative recipes, each drink is paired with a portrait and profile of the literary icon who inspired it, spanning novelists, poets, essayists, and trailblazing voices across genres.

✨ Highlights include:

• The Virginia Woolf – a peach-and-mint sip with modernist flair

• The Octavia Butler – bold, uncompromising bourbon and port

• The Jia Tolentino – a purple sparkler with cerebral pop culture vibes

• The Mary Shelley – a surprising mashup of the Manhattan and Margarita

Perfect for book clubs, literary soirées, or quiet evenings with a cocktail in hand, Buzzworthy blends sophistication with playfulness—an intoxicating toast to creativity and conversation.
