Learn how to plan, pack, and whip up great drinks in the great outdoors.

Great drinks for the outdoors!Cabin trips, hikes, patio parties, camping adventures-however you enjoy the great outdoors, it should be fun and easy. And so should the drinks! Simplicity, though, doesn't mean you're limited to a bottle and a mixer. With Camp Cocktails, you'll have a variety of options for tasty drinks fit for wherever you want to take them.

Cool off after a hot day spent hiking through the woods with a Flask Boulevardier or the Northwoods Sidecar. Break in the campsite with a Grilled Orange Cobbler or the ultimate beer-based cocktail. Bundling up around the fire? Warm up with the Salted Hazelnut Hot Chocolate, the Penicillin Toddy, or a spiked hot apple cider. If you're ready to go a step further, there's even a chapter for using foraged ingredients.
