If you're going to drink, don't you think you should have a little something to eat, too? In this, the third volume of STC's highly successful Drinkology series, cocktail impresario James Waller joins forces with caterer/food designer Ramona Ponce to teach the world's boozehounds how to chow down.

Think of Drinkology EATS as the essential "to-your-health foods" cookbook. From scrumptious, no-fuss edibles to serve up at your own home bar, to the makings of a perfect Champagne brunch, to the dos and don'ts of throwing a cocktail party—for half a dozen friends or a hundred revelers—Waller and Ponce offer easy-to-follow recipes for everything from homemade potato chips and icebox crackers to herb-encrusted gravlax and savory buffalo kebabs. Along the way, the authors dispense a tankardful of practical advice and more than a jigger's worth of the Drinkology series' trademark wit and irreverence.

Whether you're planning the menu for a beer bash, a tropical drinks-themed get-together, a martini-soaked afternoon tea, a holiday fête, a nightcap snack, or a morning-after breakfast, Drinkology EATS is the must-have handbook for at-home entertaining. Elegantly illustrated by Glenn Wolff, the book also features a round of brand-new cocktail recipes guaranteed to whet your guests' appetites.
