This Calls for a Drink! by Diane Mcmartin
Sure, Food & Wine has you covered for that heritage pork roast with the terrifying price tag. Wine Spectator will tell you what Napa Cabernet will be just perfect for your three course dinner party. But let's say you're a normal person. Who eats pigs in a blanket while binge watching Broad City. Who has a blind date she's dreading and anticipating in equal measure. Who's suffering through her "just for now" job. Tackling every facet of line from dating to weddings, holidays to hosting, work to entertainment - Occasional Drinking offers nearly 200 wine and beer suggestions for just about every situation that calls for a drink. It's a hilarious guide - finally, you'll know what to sip while Facebook stalking your ex! And it's a helpful guide with profiles of different styles, primers on terms and traditions and tips on everything from tasting to buying. Occasional Drinking will show you how to drink like an adult, even if you don't always behave like one.
