High Balls and High Heels: A Girl's Guide to the Art of Cocktails

Description

The authors of Atomic Cocktails strike again, this time with a feminine twist. Hi Balls in High Heels combines 50s cocktail party nostalgia with modern girl independence. With chapters like 'Women Behind Bars', 'The Last Seduction', and 'Women on the Verge of a Holiday Breakdown', any hip, trendy chick can make and enjoy the cocktail that fits her mood and personality. The book includes an essential essay on women and the art of drinking with style, plus a guide for planning cocktail parties, dinners, and summer bashes. There is even a chapter with non-alcoholic drinks for those girls with 'inner' spirit. This is the perfect companion for anyone who bought Atomic Cocktails.
