By Maureen Petrosky

Celebrate the art of gathering after a day on the slopes with more than 75 inviting recipes for delicious cocktails and decadent apr s snacks.

Apr s ski is the French term for "after ski." It's the time when everyone gets off the mountain, sheds their gear, and decompresses from a long day on the slopes. Whether you're toasting with champagne coupes and caviar, dancing on tables in your ski boots, or cuddling up with a fuzzy blanket, apr s has become its own occasion--with or without the skiing.

With beautiful photography and vintage poster art, this stunningly designed celebration of all things apr s allows you to revel in wintry delights all year long, including:

Spritzes and Champagne Sips: All the bubbles and spritzy sips you could dream of, including a Limoncello Spritz, Negroni Sbagliato, and Rosemary French 75.Hot Cocktails: Cool slopes call for hot cocktails, such as a Spiked Hot Nutella with Toasted Marshmallows, Marrakesh Coffee with Fresh Whipped Chantilly, and a Fresh Ginger & Makrut Lime Hot Toddy.Shot Skis: Delicious shots that can be enjoyed with or without the ski (but this chapter includes a step-by-step tutorial on how to make your very own shot ski. . . just in case): Baby Guinness, Wicked Apple, and Polar Bear.Black Diamond Drinks: Just like black diamond runs are a few steps beyond the basics, this chapter has a mix of classic cocktails with twists, including a Minty G&T, Espresso Martiki, and Apr s Ski Swizzle.Zero Proof Apr s Sips & Tonics Zero-proof cocktails and tonics that skip the booze, but not the flavor or the fun, such as a Citrusy Cucumber Tonic, Matcha Flip, and Skiwasser.Snacks & Apr s Treats Bites inspired by some of the most famous apr s ski spots across the globe, including Poutine Arancini, Raclette Baguette with Cured Meat & Cornichons, and Warm Dubai Chocolate Chunk Cookies
