Synopsis

112 cocktail recipes to be drunk in remembrance of the dead.The profoundest reason for drinking to the dead to the point of intoxication is to foster a sense of concord with the departed. By way of example, for the Germanic peoples of late antiquity, “The excessive enjoyment of an intoxicating beverage (beer), often in tandem with the funerary rite, can be seen here as a solidarity ritual: it puts those who remain among the living into a kind of transcendent, paranormal state. This is the same state in which the deceased himself now seems to exist, whereby the funerary rite can be accepted as a ‘following into death.’”
