Congratulations, and welcome to parenthood! Babies are a miracle, but even miracles poop. A lot. Thank goodness she’s got your twinkling eyes, he’s got your perfect nose, and we’ve got your aching back. Welcome to Hickory Daiquiri Dock: Cocktails with a Nursery Rhyme Twist — the ultimate gift for new parents everywhere.

Featuring 20 classic nursery rhymes with a decidedly grown-up twist, it’s time to lose the rattle, pick up a shaker, and throw yourself an extremely quiet party. Especially if you’ve finally gotten the baby to sleep, which is always worth toasting to.

Drinks include:
— Eeny, Martini, Miny, Mo
— Jack and Coke (and Jill)
— Ring Around the RoséR> — Old MacDonald Had a Flask
— Baa, Baa, Black Russian
— and more!

    Praise for Tim Federle's Tequila Mockingbird
    “It's a little-known fact that the information in here will make anyone look and sound better than they actually do”
    —David Baldacci
    “…this is a wonderfully entertaining read, slight enough to be digested in one sitting, clever enough to be entertaining even if you never make a single one of the cocktails.”
    —World of Beer blog
