I was lucky enough to read two advanced reader copies of upcoming cookbooks. Since both publish on September 17, I am adding them to one blog post together. Hope you enjoy the review as much as I enjoyed the books! -Lynnie
I didn't really know what to think of United We Drink when I downloaded it, but I have to say that I was very impressed. It's a fun idea to gather a collection of beverages based on each of our presidents - even if some of them seemed to be a stretch to represent the particular president - and I enjoyed learning a quick fact about the presidents and imagining what they might have thought of this endeavor. The photos in the book are beautiful and I definitely marked a few others to try based on the photos alone!
I made a few drinks from this book just based on ingredients I have at home & each was fantastic. Particularly favorites are the Second-in-Command Spritz (why didn't it ever occur to me to add brandy to prosecco, it's delicious!) and the Grand Old Partini, which for our purposes we are just going to call the Partini (sorry, not sorry).
This would be a fun addition to anyone's bar.

There are so many delicious recipes in this book, and I have bookmarked more than a dozen that I would like to try. I have been dreaming about the image of the Pogácsa in the pages - the ingredients are on my next shopping list.
Salamon's stories bring the recipes to life and I enjoyed learning about his traditions and his family through their dinner table. Salamon also lists substitutions when appropriate and shares beautiful photos of the food that made my stomach growl. I can't wait to start trying some of these dishes.
