It’s the most wonderful time of the year, namely COCKTAIL TIME! 

What better way to honor and enjoy all the holidays of a year than to toast each one with a fabulous new cocktail?

This exuberant little book takes you from New Year’s Day all the way to New Year’s Eve, with stops along the way at the other festive holidays of the year: Groundhog Day, Super Bowl Sunday, Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, April Fools’ Day, Easter, Cinco de Mayo, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Independence Day, Talk Like a Pirate Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, and Christmas.

McEwan’s original creations are truly wonderful, and he is a droll and delightful guide through the tools and techniques the reader will need to make all these snazzy cocktails and mocktails at home. The book is designed and illustrated by the inimitable Sandra Boynton, who happens to be the author’s mother.
