Raise a glass to Taylor Swift with 60 cocktail recipes inspired by every era, including riffs off greatest hits, twists on her favorite drinks, callouts to iconic moments in Swiftie history, and an abundance of fan-service Easter eggs, plus 20 alcohol-free options. Every Swiftie will find something to love in this boozy celebration of the legendary music icon. Call it what you want, in The Eras Pour you can drink your way through every distinctive era with delicious, creative cocktails that capture the spirit of Taylor Swift’s greatest hits and fan favorites.
Whether you’re looking for a refreshing sipper like Fever Dream, a blackberry-and-bitters twist on a Pimm’s cup in the middle of a cruel summer, or a cozy, cardigan-worthy cinnamon- and smoke-laced Peter Losing Wendy to drink under a streetlight in a forever winter, ’tis the damn season. Get ready to shake it up with a James Dean Daydream cherry-spiked martini, or indulge in a Tim McGraw–worthy Old Hickory Lake, a peach and bourbon duo perfect for slow dancing all night in your faded blue jeans. Feel aglow with Lights Are So Bright, the Tay-Tini riff you’ve been waiting for, or toast with a Crestfallen Cure, a contemplative sparkler for late-night train rides and champagne problems (Dom Perignon optional). From the fearless flavors of Taylor’s early days to the reputation-shaking mixes of her later albums—plus alcohol-free options so everyone at the party has fun—The Eras Pour has got you covered.
With stunning photography of the cocktails and a design that reflects Taylor’s ever-evolving style—from her country roots to pop anthem queen—The Eras Pour is the perfect way to celebrate her career, maybe all too well. Made for London boys, Miss Americanas, and new romantics alike, this book is the perfect companion for your next listening party. Grab your shaker tins—it’s time to make the whole place shimmer.
A very cute book with nice photographs. I wish this book included mocktails since not everyone drinks alcohol. Good inspiration for bachelorette/birthday parties.
This Taylor Swift-themed cocktail "cookbook" was everything I imagined and more. It opened with really good explanations of bartending tools and standard ingredients, and I learned a lot. The authors also gave simple instructions for making various syrups to use in the cocktails. SUPER simple. I'm excited about that! Then, each and every recipe had an associated track with fun descriptions that gave a clear picture of the cocktail and also how it relates to the song. The recipes were arranged in order of album release and many pages had extra info or quotes about the song. And every recipe had a photo of the finished cocktail. I jotted down several recipes to try, all associated with songs I love. And you know I'll be pulling them up to listen to while I make them!
Note: A lot of the recipes had simple substitutions for how to make them mocktail-style instead of cocktail-style, if that's your style.
I appreciate the thought put into each drink and why it was chosen and the inclusion of song lyrics was cute. I also loved that nearly all of them had a non-alcoholic version attached to be able to adapt it for those that don't drink. The artwork was beautiful and fun for this too.
But the drinks just don't sound good. I'm not a heavy drinker but I know enough that some of these seem complicated to make and not worth how expensive some of the liquors are.
Also why did we lump evermore and folklore together?? They're vastly different albums that stand on their own. Even the eras tour had them in separate sections at first.
As a true Swiftie, but not a big drinker, I am unsure how best to deal with this book. But if anyone is going to get me to try some crazy alcoholic beverages, it's Taylor. The images are all reminiscent of Taylor's biggest moments and her hits are all represented in titles and ingredients. This is one for all of us grow-up Swifties.
