Amazon.com: "The most
complete book of its kind . . . a refreshing oasis for the millions of
readers who
prefer zero proof. For anyone seeking a boost without
the booze, there's never been a better book."
According to the Today
show's Gene Shalit in his holiday book roundup:
"Sharon Tyler Herbst serves up 'The Ultimate Liquor-Free Drink Guide' from
Broadway Books.
More than 325 libations with blasts and buzz, but no hangovers.
She pulls no punches while pouring punches, gloggs, nogs, teas that please and
fruits to freeze.
Best of all, even after you've had your fill of this refreshing book, you can
still drive."
No buzz but plenty of pizzazz! That’s what the drinks in this book are all about—over 325 recipes for dazzling alcohol-free drinks the whole family can enjoy. The collection includes everything from milkshakes to mocktails, all designed to please the most jaded palate.
If you're tired
of serving the ubiquitous seltzer and lime to non-drinking guests at cocktail
parties, The Ultimate Liquor-Free Drink Guide
has a wealth of refreshing
choices for you. There are cold
drinks, hot drinks and even in-between drinks. There
are smoothies, eggnogs and punches—drinks for one and drinks for bunches.
Beat-the-heat coolers and a chapter devoted entirely to ades (lemon, lime and
others), all ready to rescue the thirsty.
The recipes are simple, easy and none
require exotic ingredients or any equipment more complex than a blender.
There’s a section on how to make great drinks and another with tips on how to
create easy, showy garnishes for them. Plus plenty of information on
drink-making tools and glassware, a table of measurements and their equivalents,
a large ingredient glossary and a chart on ingredient equivalents. In short,
everything you need to make show-stopping drinks for any occasion.
