Product Information

Join us, Sophie and Hannah, as we move our lengthy, impassioned conversations about life as a woman from the corner of a party to our very own podcast. With each one of these amazing drinks that you try, you are going to be learning more and more, as well as getting a little tipsier too! A new edition of the wildly popular cocktail book featuring revised and updated texts and a bold new cover. Free the Tipple pays tribute to a brilliant range of diverse women from the 20th century to today who have made waves in entertainment, the arts, politics, fashion, literature, sports, and science, including Frida Kahlo, Rihanna, Serena Williams, Virginia Woolf, Yoko Ono, Zaha Hadid, Marlene Dietrich, Zadie Smith and more. This ranges from The Gloria Steinem, which uses a complex liquor with a radical twist, to The Beyoncé, made, of course, with lemonade.

The recipes have been cleverly crafted taking into consideration personality, style, legacy, or what she liked to drink herself. Could you give me one or two examples of amazing women you ’ ve discovered or whose histories have surprised you while writing the book?

Bright, vibrant and fun, this entertaining book features some seriously impressive and colourful portraits of some of the world’s most iconic women, alongside the recipes for the beverages inspired by them.

Before starting, I’d read as much as I could about the woman’s life and see what ingredients felt natural to associate with her.And it would be fairly arrogant of me to think that my little cocktail book could derail the legacy of the women in this book!
