As readers of Mrslilien.com well know, the rhyming lifestyle blog hooks you at hello.
Now Mrs. Lilien (a.k.a. graphic designer Kelley Lilien) brings us a new reason to shirk our chores: Mrs. Lilien’s Cocktail Swatchbook just hit bookstores. An ode to classic libations made modern, the book is divided into hard-to-resist recipe sections (blended, shaken, and punch bowls).
Here, Lilien shares a deadly beer/tequila concoction. Our only recommendation: Sip slowly, or the room may start spinning, too.
