Time to grab a book and get tipsy!
Books & Booze challenges participating authors to make up their own drinks, name and all, or create a drink list for their characters and/or readers using drinks that already exist.
Today, Isabelle Kenyon whips up a new drink in honor of her latest collection of poetry,
Ready to get your booze on??
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Drink: 'Jungle Fever'
Malibu (fruity and tropical)
Coconut milk (cleansing, pure)
A starfruit garnish (think thick jungles and
exotic new tastes and topics)
Lemon juice (bittersweet
aftertaste)
I chose this drink
because the book is entirely based on my time in New Zealand - exotic greenery,
coastal beaches and fresh flavours. It was a time to cleanse the pallet so to
speak, after the funeral of my Grandma, and so the exciting new experiences were
often bittersweet.
