Raise a glass to Tequila Mockingbird, the bestselling literary cocktail guide pairing iconic novels with classic and cutting-edge drink recipes—no English degree required.

For more than a decade, Tequila Mockingbird—the world’s bestselling literary cocktail recipe book—has endured as a favorite among readers, bartenders, and book lovers alike, celebrated for its clever commentary on some of history’s most beloved books. This expanded edition builds on that legacy with a newly updated introduction, refined drink recipes, and more than 70 cocktails, mocktails, and bar snacks, including 15 new recipes and 7 original illustrations that are available exclusively in this revised edition.

Don’t worry if you snoozed your way through Comp Lit. Think of this recipe guide as SparkNotes with a liquor license, trading out pop quizzes for popped corks. For all you mixologists and cosmo connoisseurs out there, we’re serving up your favorite recipes with a smart new twist. You’ve gotta have something to talk about behind the bar—why not raise the level of banter by brushing up on your Brontë?

Let’s get a little stupid and look a little smart. Even if you don’t have a B.A. in English, tonight you’re gonna drink like you do. Recipes include:

Big Little Limes
Are You There God? It’s Me, Margarita
The Other Cognac Girl
Gin Eyre
Call Me by Your Nectarine
The Hand-Mule’s Tale

And more!
