Shakespeare, Not Stirred: Cocktails for Your Everyday Dramas

In Shakespeare, Not Stirred, two professors mix equal parts booze and Bard to help you through your everyday dramas. It s like having Shakespeare right there in your living room, downing a great drink and putting your crappy day in perspective. So get out your cocktail shaker and lend him your ears.

Each original cocktail and hors d oeuvre recipe connects Shakespeare s characters to life s daily predicaments:


Drown your sorrows after a workplace betrayal with Othello s Green-Eyed Monster
Distract yourself from domestic drama with Kate s Shrew-driver or Cleopatra s Flings in a Blanket
Recapture your youth with Puck s Magic Shrooms
Mark a romantic occasion with Beatrice and Benedick s Much Ado About Frothing
Featuring classic images from the Folger Shakespeare Library (hilariously doctored to feature some hard-partying Shakespearean protagonists) and Mini-Bards you can raid for extra context and commentary, Shakespeare, Not Stirred is a completely intoxicating experience.
