There’s little toil, & no trouble to be found in this tasty book of magickal beverages, plus it has it all. Better still, you need nothing more than what’s in your refrigerator or on supermarket shelves to whip up the magick to perfection. No eye of newt anywhere! Alongside the variety of recipes, this book goes on to share the wonderful heritage of beverage making & consumption -- how drinks appeared on altars as gifts to the gods, where toasts come from, & why we pass wine clockwise around the table. All this lore & superstition combines with modern magickal methods to help you design beverages that quench both physical & spiritual thirst completely, while tantalizing your taste buds. In the second half of the book, each section is devoted to a specific theme with a suggested component list, preparation ideas, & a host of recipes for both consumption & spellcraft purposes. Whether you’re creating a drink so you can internalize its qualities for daily living, or making it for a friend, there’s something here for all occasions, needs, & tastes. Softcover, 221 pgs.
