Hi.

Welcome to Hasty Book List—your cozy corner of the internet for all things bookish. Here, I share the stories I’m reading, the ones I can’t stop thinking about, and a few literary surprises along the way. I’m so glad you’re here.

Edith Head

Edith Head

Edith Head | Today’s recipe is inspired by the iconic fashion designer of the same name and was adopted from the recipe in Free the Tipple by @jencrolland illustrated by @kellyshami. I’m teaching fashion history at Indiana State this semester and I love being immersed in one of my favorite subjects once again.

INGREDIENTS:
- 2oz Cognac (or, if like me you don’t have cognac, then you can substitute brandy…which tasted quite nice!)
- 1oz @cointreau
- 1oz fresh lemon juice (yeah right, I use the bottled stuff)
- Orange twist for garnish

DIRECTIONS:
In a shaker filled with ice, combine the cognac, @cointreau_us, and lemon juice. Shake like you mean it. Pour into your favorite drinking vessel and garnish with an orange twist. #ahastycocktail
