It was a Cocktail Wednesday on the latest episode of What We Watch When We Drink from the Boozedancing Entertainment Network. An old friend ventured back into our little house of horrors for the festivities. André Darlington, best selling cocktail author, popped in to chat about his latest and greatest efforts: Cowboy Cocktails and Forbidden Cocktails. Two widely different books with the through line of Cocktails.

We dove into cowboy culture in American in the 19th century and what ‘dem cowpokes were drinkin’ while they were wranglin’, brandin’, ridin’, lassoin’, and reckonin’. And then it was a flip of the switch to Hollywood circa 1930-1934 with Pre-Code movies when what America saw on the big screen was eye opening and pushing the boundaries of entertainment. All for a nickel! Big stars, big winks, and big drinks were the rule in these flicks. Andre´ fills his books with plenty of cocktails inspired by the subject matter. Fun, funny, easy, yummy. No, not us. The cocktails, ya big galoot!
