This is a story of two friends who reconnected after 20 years thanks to one fateful Friday night drink at home.Every Friday night in Sydney, during Australia’s COVID-19 lockdown, Evanthia would make a cocktail after a long week working in a microbiology laboratory and post it on social media. Deciding to make cocktails inspired by the destinations of her cancelled travel plans, Evanthia caught the attention of her long-lost university friend, Mario, who now lives on the other side of the world. From his home in Milton Keynes, England, which was also under a strict lockdown, Mario couldn’t resist challenging Evanthia to create a cocktail to remind him of his many trips to Italy. And so began a virtual adventure around Europe, not complete without witty banter, travel tidbits, and a whole lot of fun. Oh, and delicious drinks, of course!With over 50 European-inspired cocktail recipes in this book, it’s time to grab your friends and embark on your own adventure this Friday night.All that’s left to ask now is . . .Are you up for the challenge?
