Dark & Stormy: A Classic Cocktail Coloring Book

Coloring, cocktails, and quips about the delights of drinking—the perfect happy hour vacation from the daily doldrums!

It’s the end of a long day. Finally, you have a moment to yourself. What to do? You could engage in the meditative act of making yourself a cocktail. Or you could pull out your markers or pencils and just as mindfully lose yourself in a coloring book. With Dark & Stormy, you can do both!

Special features:

• 38 classic cocktail recipes, from the Sazerac to the Salty Dog, the Mai Tai to the Manhattan
• Original artist-created coloring designs of each of the cocktails—no AI, no stock images!
• As fun to read as it is to color! Every recipe includes interesting backstory about the cocktail and a quote that celebrates the delights and comic downfalls of tossing one back (or one too many!).
• The perfect gift! Hardcover with a beautiful printed case featuring foil stamping and decorative spot varnish, gold gilded pages, and coloring designs printed on premium heavyweight paper

Bartender Hannah Kingsley provides the recipes for 38 classic cocktails as well as fun facts about their origins. With drink in hand, you can then sit down to color artist Maria Francesca Melis’s delightful original rendering of the same cocktail. Feel the stress fall away with every sip and every stroke. Your mood is guaranteed to be further lifted by the quotes that appear with each drink (“Vermouth always makes me brilliant, unless it makes me idiotic, but we’ll hope for the best.”—E. F. Benson).

Whether it’s a Paloma, Cosmopolitan, Margarita, or Dark ’n Stormy, color yourself calm and contented!
