Wow, what a cool little book filled with "HOT" drinks. I've always been able to find "cold" beverage recipe books that are mostly enjoyed during warm weather (or on a beach!), but not one that has warm drinks for the cooler months. It's a handy guide for making "festive" drinks for the fall and winter months but it also includes coffee and tea recipes that can be enjoyed year-round. It has recipes for one or for a group which is great for entertaining for the upcoming holidays. The recipes are easy to follow and your mouth will water just looking at the gorgeous pictures of these wonderful drinks! SO many recipes are packed in this small package, it would make a great gift for your favorite party hostess. And just in case this review still isn't helpful enough, let me just say two last words........CHOCOLATE MARTINI!!

I haven't tried a drink that I didn't find absolutely yummy! Great holiday drink recipes. The "Gingerbread Men" is a warm and cozy coffee drink, the Praline Prancer tastes as good as it looks wit its sugar rim, and my other favorite is "Cookies and Cream"...realy warms you up! I'm making up a gift basket with the book, mugs/glasses, and ingredients for my special friends. It's a holiday must!

This book was chock-full of great hot drink recipes. We like to throw a holiday party every year and serve signature holiday drinks and this was the PERFECT book for such a task!! Not only were the recipes numerous, but they were also simple. The book is FULL of great pictures and the drinks are well-organized in their chapters. I would whole-heartedly recommend this book to ANYONE who loves delicious warm drinks when it's cold outside. You get your money's worth and then some... there are even recipes that are kid specific!! EXCELLENT CHOICE!!!

This book is simply wonderful. Put away the quilts, turn down the thermostat and start the fire.... You will feel too warm and toasty when you get a nice HOT cup of any of these drinks inside of your body to need any of the items listed.
I highly recommend these drinks for when you are too cold to sleep or too jittery, for when you want to relax infront of a movie or just relax after an arduous day...
Do Not Operate Heavy Machinery :)
Have fun!!!

I had eyed this book for quite some time before I purchased it, and I am so glad I did! The pictures of the drinks are so tempting and beautifully done that you are warmed up just by flipping through the book! Most of the recipes in this book are alcohol based, so don't pick this book up looking for lots of kid-friendly drinks (though there are definitely some that kids would enjoy, such as a s'mores hot chocolate). The recipes are all simple and there is a nice section on creating garnishes. Order this book and get ready to sit back and enjoy some tasty, piping hot drinks!
