The Tippling Bros. A Lime And A Shaker: Discovering Mexican-Inspired Cocktails

I gave this book as a Christmas gift to someone who loves margaritas. We're both having such a fun time reading the recipes and stories in the book — it's the best! I didn't have high expectations for a cocktail cook book but the info is so interesting and helpful and it's fun to reference while making new drinks or just to read after dinner.

If you have ever been overwhelmed by variety while shopping for Tequila, this book is for you! After reading "Tequila 101" you will know exactly what you need and why you need it. Big thanks to the Tippling Bros. for sharing their knowledge and experience so that others can enjoy. The recipes offer so many flavor combinations there is sure to be a favorite for everyone and the stories they share are quite entertaining! If there are any Tequila lovers on your gift lists this is one they will LOVE! Nothing but good stuff here!!!

For someone who loves margarita... specifically a combination of tequila and any citrus this book will not disappoint you. We made several recipes from this book and they all taste authentic and so good. The only con is they have their own recipes for simple syrup and other condiments and most of ththe m only last 7 days in the fridge - a bit inconvenient.

Love this book. I was pleasantly surprised to find that, not only do I have an arsenal of pretty kick-ass Mexican cocktail recipes at my disposal, I learned more than I ever thought possible about the history and varieties of Tequila and Mezcal. The recipes are fresh and sophisticated but totally accessible. Can't wait to work my way through all of them, now that I'm a bonafide expert on all things Tequila.Bonus: the book is beautiful and well-written. This would be a great gift along with a nice bottle of Tequila.

This book has a lot of great ideas and recipes. As a heads up a lot of these drinks involve creating your own syrups, infusions, etc. Which is great and lends itself to further inspiration.

The first of hopefully many must have cocktail manuals from the world’s best beverage consultants. The duo who are consistently ahead of the game bring a whimsical yet informative book on the often under used and over-mixed Agave spirits and Mexican flavors. This is a modern textbook that shakes up the common exhausted recipes with fresh, spicy, and exotic libations. Bravo gentlemen!

A Lime and a Shaker is an in depth look at not only Tequila and Mezcal but it also includes professional tips and tricks that only true trade pros use everyday and beyond. Read this book from front to back and you will be making impressive cocktails you never thought were possible.

Amazing recipe's in this book! Watermelon Hibiscus Margarita an absolute must! Had some friends over for a cocktail party and enjoyed several recipe's found in this gem of a book. Perfect for a hostess gift too. Easy to read, quick to drink! Love it!
