From the Eastern European favourites such as Becherovka whose recipe is known to only two people to legendary drinks such as Absinthe which was banned due to alleged hallucinogenic effect. From classic cocktail ingredients like Midori, the bright green Japanese melon drink that was launched at the wrap party for Saturday Night Fever at Studio 54, to student favourites like Goldwasser the gold flecked German drink that has been brewed since the 16th century and is supposed to have alchemical effects - Sippery Tipples tells the stories behind the word's most extraordinary drinks. Alongside the A-Z is a series of easy to follow recipes for you to make your own liqueurs and spirits. If you would like to concoct your own fruit brandies or make a traditional summer cup like PIMMS then this is the book for you. Plus over 100 cocktail and shooter recipes including, of course, the classic 80s cocktail the Slippery Nipple.
