Preggatinis™: Mixology for the Mom-to-Be - Softcover

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

When it comes to knowing what to drink (and how and why) Natalie Bovis is your personal guide through Cocktail Land. The daughter of European immigrants (French and English) and spending summers with family in France, alcoholic drinks were healthily integrated into Natalie’s world-view, growing up. A little sip of champagne on holidays or a panaché (half beer, half lemonade) is a normal part of life for a young adult, in Europe. The integration of spirits and wine into everyday life occasions (often whipped up behind a full-sized bar in the family home) seemed as natural to her as, well, Apple Pie Martinis.

Natalie has also had a lifelong affair with the written word, and wrote her first poem at seven years old. As creator and editor of TheLiquidMuse.com, (website, blog, cocktail consultation, classes and an online show) Natalie brings two passions together by writing about cocktails and spirits from around the world.
