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.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
About the Author:By day, Devin C. B. McEwan is a Whitewater Slalom racer, traveling and competing internationally for the USA since 2001, including on the US Olympic Team in Rio in 2016. By night, McEwan is a fanatical and inventive mixology hobbyist, researching (i.e. reading and bar-hopping) extensively, and bringing tastes and techniques from his travels into play. His many friends keep urging him to open his own bar, but one of his drinking buddies told him that he should first write a book featuring his own cocktails—and she offered to do the illustrations. She's his mom, so he kind of had to say okay so as not to hurt her feelings.
About the Illustrator:
Sandra Boynton is the author's mother. When she's not busy taste-testing cocktails, Boynton writes/illustrates books and writes/produces music. She's worked with B.B. King, Yo-Yo Ma, Alison Krauss, Lyle Lovett, Patti LuPone, Brian Wilson, Kacey Musgraves, Ben Folds, Stanley Tucci, Meryl Streep, "Weird Al" Yankovic and Kate Winslet (a duet), Darius Rucker, Zooey Deschanel, Dwight Yoakam, Patrick Warburton, and others. But Devin is her favorite collaborator because NOT ONE of those other people ever even OFFERED to make her a cocktail.
