In the last 20 years, tequila sales have tripled, reflecting the growing interest in and steady rise of Mexico's drink culture. In The Tippling Bros. A Lime and a Shaker, Tad Carducci and Paul Tanguay, who collectively have 55 years of professional experience in the beverage industry, step in to provide their expertise on Mexican cocktails. Their 72 exciting recipes go past the classic margarita and include traditional, craft, and spicy drinks such as the Blood-Orange-Cinnamon Margarita, San Fresa Frizz, and Smokey Pablo. The authors also cover the history of tequila, explain the difference between different tequilas, and offer bonus recipes for aguas frescas, syrups, salts, and some of their favorite Mexican dishes. With vibrant photographs throughout, this is the must-have book on the subject, perfect for home cooks, bartenders, and those who just want to know more about tequila and mezcal.
The Tippling Bros. A Lime and a Shaker: Discovering Mexican-Inspired Cocktails Reviews

A fun little read,
A mix of good ideas, some recipes , snippets o history, and a good chapter on additional non-alcoholic drinks. -
I've made 10 drinks from this book, can officially name it a treasure trove of creative endeavors using the agave spirits. Favorites include the Margarita con Humo, the Savory Strawberry Margarita, and the Division Bell (mezcal, aperol, lime, and Luxardo). Can't wait to try the Howler (peanut liqueur, canteloupe, lime, and tequila) and the Arose con Blonde (horchata, Lillet Blonde, lime, cumin, and oregano).
This puppy is a keeper! Only gripe: awful index. Can't search by particular liqueur, particular ingredient, etc. Needs much improvement for the second edition. -
can someone make me all the drinks?!

Looking for some really unusual tequila recipes? This is it. Loved the uniqueness of this book. Beautiful pictures accompanied some bit more difficult recipes to make, but still worth it.
