Drink Up & Glow
*One of Food & Wine's "35 Best Cookbooks of All Time"* Restore your body, mind, and spirit with these delicious, easy-to-make recipes for non-alcoholic drinks featuring some of nature's most powerful, stress-busting, health-supporting plants: adaptogens. It's no secret that modern life is not great for our health. Stress and sickness are on the rise and traditional Western medicine, with its overreliance on pills, drugs, and chemically derived substances, doesn't always help. Still less does alcohol and other supposed "coping" mechanisms. It's no wonder people are turning to adaptogens instead: herbs, roots, fungi, and other plants that have been used for centuries in traditional and ancestral medicine to help people adapt to stress and increase wellness. While it's common to consume these potent plants as supplements, a better way--more sustainable and enjoyable way--is to incorporate them into your daily, monthly, and yearly diet. In Drink Up & Glow, master beverage creator Gaby Mylnarczyk will show you how to do just that and reap the astonishing benefits of these powerful plants. In this fully photographed and illustrated book, Gaby pulls from her years of experience working behind bars and in kitchens--not to mention coping with her own health challenges--to create 75 adaptogenic recipes for drinks, tonics, shots, smoothies, shakes, mocktails, and more. Organized seasonally and rooted in Gaby's point of view as a craft beverage maker, these recipes feature fresh produce, include zero alcohol, and incorporate the most popular and well-researched adaptogens of the day: ashwagandha, goji berries, holy basil, turmeric, rhodiola, lion's mane, chaga, ginseng, and more. From enlivening morning shakes and lattes to caffeine-free afternoon energy shots to soothing nightcaps and tisanes, these drinks are designed to flow with the natural rhythm of the day and help support a variety of health outcomes, including stress relief, immunity assistance, and improved mood, digestion, and sleep. A delightful collection of drinks that are both functional and delicious, the recipes include: Goji Berry Rhubarb SourThe Maca FauxitoHoly Basil Cucumber LemonadeDirty Chaga ChaiRelaxing Reishi TisaneRising Sun Shake"Mind Embracer" Lion's Mane MuleMango Maca LassiGotu Kola SpritzSangresandra "Margarita"Holy Rhodiola Smoothie BowlRosy Glow Horchata with Shitake & Velvet BeanAnd more!Each chapter also includes a few recipes for gatherings and celebrations, for those times when you need to provide drinks for a crowd.

Illuminate Your Plate
It's been said that people love to eat! Most all occasions center around eating no matter what that occasion may be. Family and friends gather for holidays, reunions, celebrations, and even funerals. There's always an abundance of food during all types of gatherings. For the most part, food is a comfort. People eat to live... people live to eat.It took me a long time to learn that difference as I'm sure it has taken many others to understand it as well. Food today is not the same as it was twenty, forty, or even a hundred years ago. Most of the time it's unhealthy, genetically modified, injected with hormones and antibiotics and so many other very unhealthy additives. But we have also learned over time that through many cultures and even "back to nature" types of eating can be very healthy and also extremely delicious.Did you know that not only do we taste food with our mouths and taste buds, but we taste with our eyes? The first thing we do is see food, then maybe smell it, touch it and of course taste it. It affects the senses and we not only deal with food physically but it can also affect us emotionally and mentally. This is what I want to achieve for you, the reader of this cookbook!My intent is to take you on an adventure that will touch your soul. I want this adventure through food to help inspire you to think about health, both physical and mental. I want to fill your physical soul with great food and your mental soul with positive vibes and thoughts.

The Art of Mixing
2024 Reprint of the 1932 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. "THE ART OF MIXING is the result of much research in many locations. It contains 235 recipes, arranged alphabetically for easy reference, and spiced with humor. In most of the recipes the ingredients have been proportioned in fractional quantities, making the use of a standard measuring unit unnecessary and allowing any number of drinks to be prepared at the same time. The recipes not so proportioned are either of the "'mixed in a glass" or punch bowl variety. A careful perusal of THE ART OF MIXING will prove a boon companion to those now suffering the status of amateurs and will bring a fragrant breath of memory to the hardened veteran in the gentle art of mixing."

Botanical Baking
Hello and welcome to Botanical Baking. thank you for choosing my book! I'm Juliet and I'm a baker, cake maker and food stylist, among other things. I've been lucky enough to be immersed in the food world, specialising in baking and cake decoration for the last two decades. I've worked with all kinds of decorating techniques and recently the trend for working with edible flowers has really grown (pardon the pun!). For the past few years I've been working with them in my baking to create lots of lovely eye-catching designs. I'm certainly not claiming to be an expert in edible flowers, but I do love using them to create really pretty cakes and bakes. I'm lucky enough to have a couple of fantastic growers who supply me with edible flowers, and I've been working with the fabulous Jan Billington (a brilliant organic flower farmer) for a few years and also the team at Nurtured in Norfolk. One day maybe I will try and grow my own... In the last few years some supermarkets have also been selling them in their salad selections, which is brilliant! There are so many wonderful blooms to choose from, and I've been exploring lots of different ways to use them. In the past I'd have made intricate sugar versions of many flowers, but it is lovely to use real flowers. They really are stunning. Not even the most skilful sugarcraft artist can replicate the beauty of a fresh edible flower. And using fresh has the added bonus that nature has done all the work for us - no need to spend hours upon hours creating chocolate or sugar ones!

No Pants Required
Last year I penned and published my first book-No Beard or Bowtie Required, Cocktails for the Craft Curious. This accomplishment surprised me more than anyone. Not much motivates me, as advancing age, weight and exhaustion fill me with inertia. The unprecedented coronavirus pandemic ironically aided my goal as an author. The bar I work at closed for many months during the lockdown, compelling me to burn what few calories I do typing away on the couch.Enough people bought it that I decided to suffer for my art a second time. Here we are two years later and said pandemic refuses to expire. Many bars intermittently lock their doors while their weary patrons recede into their living rooms in fear. So here I am, committing as many of my cocktail creations to paper as my sanity might once again allow.
