Review: XOXO : A Cocktail Book -An Unofficial Gossip Girl Fan Book - Bridget Thoreson - May 2020
Wanting to host a ladies’ night? A fun Cocktail Party for the girls?
Titled with the famous catchphrase XOXO, is this amazing cocktail book based on
the hit TV show and book series Gossip Girl. As soon as I saw this, I had to
check it out as I was a fan of Gossip Girl from about the age of 15-16 years
when I first discovered the book series by Cecily von Ziegesar, and then later
I was hooked when it came to life on the screen featuring Blake Lively as our
beautiful Serena and Leighton Meester as Blair Waldorf. This series had
us watching religiously all the dramas that unfolded on the Upper East Side of
New York and then trying to figure out who our XOXO - Gossip Girl was - who
loved to air the drama online and out in the world. Author Bridget Thoreson has
compiled a list of favorite drinks inspired by the show. At the front of the
book to it talks about the appropriate glassware for each drink from Cocktail
Glasses to Highballs and Irish Coffee Glasses. Then it moves on to a list of appropriate
drinks for all occasions and remember this is the Upper East Side and the world
of rich and wealthy, so it's normal to drink Tequila and flavored Vodka during
their high school sleepovers, and then it moves on to events like Charity Gala
balls, Masquerades and then Liqueurs and Mixers. Some of the drinks include
Hamptons White Party aka White Lady Cocktail to a Dirty Scandal aka Duke's
Martini and the Dorm Party Sake-tini aka Sake-tini.
This is the perfect guide for all fans of the Gossip Girl Fandom and those wanting to brush up on their skills of perfecting the perfect drink and skills needed to be a bartender. This Christmas, why not check out this book and have a Cocktail party for your end of year drinks, a great way to finish off 2020.
