Plus, it features a foreword by Saved by the Bell star Tiffani Thiessen, certifying Saved by the Bellini as a true testament to the decade! 

Get ready to stir up memories—and some hella delicious drinks. This cocktail book has 65+ awesome recipes that celebrate the decade’s greatest pop culture moments, from cassette tape tunes and video game consoles to after-school snacks and OMG-it’s-back-again fashion. Sip on the Gusher Crusher, down the Away Message, serve up the Heart of the Ocean, and finish it all with the Waterfall Chaser. Only in this ’90s book does TGIF stand for Thank God It’s Fizzy! Throwbacks to Pogs, the slap bracelet, Reebok Pumps, and even the ubiquitous “Got Milk?” ads are accompanied by spunky, funky pop-art illustrations that are so sick, you might want to tear out the pages to hang next to your Tiger Beat JTT posters. As if!

      This fun walk down memory lane from deBary (Drink What You Want) starts with a foreword by none other than Tiffani Thiessen from Saved by the Bell. As a cocktail guide, it naturally starts by providing all of the basics of getting a home bar up to speed. Liquors, mixers, and garnishes are all explained, along with the proper tools and basic steps on making drinks. Those who grew up in the '90s will likely recognize many of the references in the book, which is divided into drinks based on entertainment, toys and technology, music, fashion, and food and drinks that all saw their heyday in that era. Each recipe features a clever, informative write-up along with an illustration, though no actual pictures of finished cocktails. VERDICT Whether one decides to make the Sanderson Sister Sour (based on the 1993 classic film Hocus Pocus), the Apple Mac-Tini, the Salt-n-Pepa Lemonade, the Pumps (inspired by Marty McFly's sneakers in Back to the Future 2), or the Yabba Dabba Doo (a Flintstones Push Up drink), readers won't be disappointed by the '90s nostalgia the book evokes alongside top-notch drink-making techniques.--Whitney Bates-Gomez
