From classic wine cocktails to the mango mimosa, from coolers and punches to mulleds and sangrias, this new edition of Bill Kaufman’s pocket guide to the wine drink is still the most comprehensive of its type in print.

Also included are guides to selecting wine, and a summary on wine types, and tips on mixing with wine. Here's one purportedly served at The North Star when it was a speakeasy. It deserves a revival.
