In her book, How To Be a Better Drinker, Hannah Chamberlain combines humor with practical advice for aspiring home bartenders and social drinkers. The book addresses cocktail preparation and highlights the significance of drinking etiquette, encouraging respect and kindness in social settings. Chamberlain emphasizes that etiquette aids in fostering connections rather than stifling them. The guide is fittingly timed with St. Patrick's Day, featuring cocktail recipes and insights on cheers etiquette, reinforcing the fun behind drinking while promoting thoughtful, considerate behavior among friends and party guests.
"While etiquette sounds stuffy and brings to mind a behavioral desiccant packet designed to suck the juice out of human interaction, the purpose of good etiquette is the reverse."
"It's about bringing people closer together and creating an optimal environment for enjoyment. It's about avoiding little thoughtless behaviors that create distance between us and treating one another with respect, consideration, and kindness."
"Cheers etiquette is a bizarre, arcane, confusing dance of arbitrary insanity. But that doesn't mean it shouldn't be followed."
