The Harlot's Guide To Classy Cocktails
Kitty Drexel READ TIME: 2 MIN.
"The Harlot's Guide To Classy Cocktails" is a cookbook for Queens following a strict diet of alcohol and debauchery. It is divided into four handy dandy categories to suit every occasion: Aperitif, Power Lunch, Party, and Passed Out Drunk in the Alley. Each recipe is accompanied by a fond memory created while under the influence.
Compiled by Jeza Belle, with an introduction by Lady Bunny, this collection cum glorified In-N-Out Burger secret menu for cocktails is sure to put sultry in your step and jazz in your hands. Contributors are a veritable "Who's Who" of Drag talent and include Sherry Vine, Latrice Royale, Barbie Breakout, Tyra Sanchez, and Yara Sofia.
It should go without saying that this compilation of cocktails is not family-friendly. Jeza Belle has committed herself to years of selfless research in order to find the greatest cocktails for a good time, and she has not curbed her tongue or her eyeliner while doing it. To be specific: Don't let the innocent eyes of children glance at this smut. The language is flamboyantly filthy and the media art images are straight from Microsoft Word circa 1997. The recipes are toxic and the stories are raunchily politically incorrect. The glamour shots of the contributing Queens are a decadent affront of common decency, and the world needs more of it.
Jeza Belle is an international Drag Queen, comedian, actress, personality, writer, and producer. She has her own interview column on Star Pulse.com. Her article, "My Journey From Christian College to Drag" about her own journey to Drag, appeared on Huffington Post on Aug. 8, 2014.
