the glamorous world of the Crawleys. With a foreword by Julian Fellowes the writer and
creator of Downton Abbey and an introduction by food historian Annie Gray this curated

drink and peppered with quotes from Downton characters the recipes are organized by the
places the drinks were served : The library (stirred drinks and after-dinner drinks) The
grounds (refreshing drinks) The great hall (party drinks) The drawing room (pre-dinner drinks
and hangover helpers) The village (everyday drinks) ¿Photographed using the original lead
crystal used on set each cocktail is guaranteed to raise your spirits whether by channeling
the verve of Lady Mary the wit of Violet Crawley or the plain speaking of Mrs Patmore. With
these cocktails relish the rich traditions and flavours of Downton Abbey without end.
