Sips on the Slopes: Drinks + Bites for Après-Ski - Hardcover

by Kelley Epstein (Author), Ren Fuller (Photographer)

A cozy cocktail book with 40 recipes for drinks and light bites perfect for an après-ski or winter cocktail hour.

Après-ski is about enjoying a drink with friends after a day in the snow. Whether you're hitting the slopes or cozied up by the fireplace, here are delicious drink recipes with and without alcohol, coded for easy reference: a green circle (mocktail), blue square (low-ABV), or black diamond (cocktail), with variations to customize each.

• Relax with a low-ABV Pomegranate Après-ol Spritz after skiing
• Whip up Tangerine Margaritas and S'more Runs Martinis to keep the party going
• Warm up with a Cognac Spiked Coffee or White Hot Chocolate
• Opt for a refreshing mocktail, like the Citrus Kombucha Fizz

Also included are easy recipes for salty and sweet snacks--such as Lemon Pepper Mixed Nuts, Parmesan Thyme Popcorn, and Snickers-Stuffed Dates--because no après-ski is complete without a bite to go with your drink. Gorgeous photography of mountain-town life will appeal to skiers, snowboarders, and snow lovers, making this a perfect holiday gift. Cheers!

WINTER COCKTAILS FOR EVERY OCCASION: Kick off the ski season with a round of Apple Cider Moscow Mules; celebrate New Year's Day with Mulled Cranberry Mimosas; cheer your sweetie on Valentine's Day with a Boozy Affogato; and cap off a bluebird spring ski day with a Blood Orange Shandy. With 32 drink recipes plus 8 recipes for snacking bites, this cookbook has all you need to enjoy winter to the fullest.

BEAUTIFUL BAR CART ADDITION: Brimming with appealing photography of ski slopes, snow-covered pine trees, chairlifts, firewood, blankets, and mountain-town life, this charming cocktail book is a must-have addition to any winter-loving cocktail enthusiast's home bar.

TOP-SHELF HOLIDAY GIFT: The ideal stocking stuffer! Wrap this charming cocktail book with a bottle of liquor, a cocktail shaker, or a pair of mittens for Christmas or a white elephant gift exchange.
