How To Drink
Victoria Moore
In the past few decades many of us have become foodies, but our new focus on flavour has been dominated by what we eat. In How to Drink Victoria Moore aims to redress the balance, by explaining how to drink well at all times of day, on all occasions, and across every season. Here are recipes for mint juleps in the spring, sloe gin in the autumn, hot buttered rum in the winter and for year-round showstoppers, including the world’s best G&T. How to Drink is unique among drinks books – neither a garish cocktail guide, nor an intimidating wine book. It’s a hugely readable and beautiful handbook, that aims to inform, entertain and, crucially, ensure you are never without the perfect drink for every occasion.

A splendid book. Victoria Moore is quite right, it's not how much you drink but how you drink. Elevenses anyone?
Fergus Henderson Director/Chef, St John Bar & Restaurant
She takes us on a well-mannered romp from breakfast to midnight, from spring to winter, from black tea to tequila ... How to Drink is a rich mine of such information, and no kitchen should be without it
John Graham, Tatler
I loved How to Drink: for the first time in years I have broken open a bottle of vodka for a bloody Mary, remembered how much better mulled cider is than mulled wine, drawn a fresh kettle for tea. It is a splendid and convincing argument not just to drink more but to drink better
