Hollywood films, reimagined as cocktails

Tim Federle pairs movie-themed drinks with the wordplay of familiar film titles, turning the book into a cocktail collection organized around Hollywood references. Its 50 recipes are accompanied by whimsical illustrations and commentary on quotable films, with recipes for movie-themed snacks alongside the drinks. The examples range from “A Sidecar Named Desire” to “The Big Le-Brewski,” showing how the book brings cinema into both its cocktail names and its food ideas. The result is a themed collection for making movie night a little more cinematic, whether the evening calls for a drama, a comedy, a horror film, or a musical.

Book overview

Here's drinking with you, kid!

From the bestselling author of Tequila Mockingbird comes this much anticipated sequel, a red carpet-worthy cocktail book for film buffs and movie enthusiasts everywhere. This one is for the Hollywood cinephiles with a refined palate for cheeky, quality cocktails.

Please, find a seat on the aisle (preferably one with a cup holder) and silence your cell phones. We've meticulously mixed a mouthwatering assortment of tipsy tributes so diverse and wide-ranging, you could line the shelves of an abandoned Blockbuster with these drinks--twice. The perfect gift for mixologists and moviegoers, Gone with the Gin is a terrific twist on movie nights that includes 50 delicious drinks and whimsical illustrations throughout.

No matter your cinematic stripe, there's a beverage (or ten) tailor-made just for you. For moviegoers who never leave their house without Kleenex, get ready to cry-slash-chug your way through history's most delectable dramas, like the Ti-tonic. If you'd rather cackle than cry, we've got you covered with You've Got Ale. If you're looking for a scream, say "Cheeeers, Johnny!" to The Moon-Shining. And if you like your cocktails sprinkled with song, Sippin' in the Rain will have you dancing out of your seat--for another round.

In addition to winking commentary on Hollywood's most quotable films, there are also recipes for movie-themed munchies, and we heard The Silence of the Lamb Burgers pair well with a nice chianti. So go ahead, make my drink. Even if you don't know every line from every movie, tonight you're gonna drink like you do.

  • A Sidecar Named Desire
  • Indiana Jones and The Shirley Temple of Doom
  • Do the Rye Thing
  • Fight Club Soda
