I am not a big drinker but man this do sound delicious and cannot wait to make them for friends at parties or gatherings

Let me start by saying I don’t even play pickleball but loved this book of drinks! It has so many yummy looking drinks that are super easy to make. I love the theme of it, they are all refreshing and summery! I also like that they show you how to make the syrups whereas other books don’t give you all of that information and just mention to use a flavored syrup!

A fun addition to any bar cart and a perfect gift for anyone who loves pickleball! The introductory pages helped list off the types of tools and ingredients in a very helpful way. I also loved that included recipes for the syrups, especially since they can be used in more than the recipes, like mocktails, sodas, etc. The addition of storage techniques and length of time was so helpful as to reduce waste. The colors were beautiful and bright without being obnoxious.

An adorable and refreshing cocktail book for the pickleball lovers in your life (hi mom!). The pictures are adorable and I want, like, all the glassware. Some of the drinks are boozy, but most and light and refreshing, with lots of fresh fruit. The recipes are simple and fun, and the ingredients are easy to source.
It’s the perfect end-of-summer pick for my cookbook club!

I'll admit that I am not a huge pickleballer (though I have played a few times before), but whether you know someone who likes cocktails, pickleball, or both, this is a great gift idea. The font, styling & photos are gorgeous, and the theme is so unique and creative. The drinks look delicious and scream summer to me. As a former bartender, I love making drinks that are a bit off the beaten path, and the summery flavors featured here are sure to be crowd pleasers on and off the court!

This book is such a well-executed cocktail book! The food styling and photography is absolutely STELLAR! This book is perfect for any cocktail or pickleball enthusiast, bonus points of you love both!
Easy to follow recipes (if you're accustomed to making cocktails) and such wonderful flavour combos!
Thank you Netgalley, Camille Wilson and Chronicle Books for allowing me to view the ARC of this cool book!

What a fun and kitschy drink cookbook!!! Great for the pickleball in your life! The drinks are amazing with cute names. The pictures are bright just like the whole book.
This book is very niche but the recipes hold up to any standard.

Ok this book is seriously cute. My mom is OBSESSED with pickleball. On two teams, buys all the cute themed gifts-level obsessed. Naturally, when I saw this one, I had to check it out.
Can assure you that this will be her new go-to hostess gift when I tell her about it. This is the perfect mix of simple and fun. The photos are great, the recipes aren’t too complicated, and the drink names are fantastic. I love the descriptions of pickleball terms that are included with each fun name.
It’s hard to pick a favorite, but the Pickle Spritz in a Can is particularly creative. I also loved how several of these gave odes to classic tennis cocktails like the Honey Deuce.
Creative idea that is well executed! Stock this one up in Naples, FL—the pickleball ladies will eat (or drink) it right up.

First of all, the title Dinks and Drinks is hilarious—and so on point! The cover immediately drew me in, and the drinks featured on the pickleball court are trendy, fun, and look absolutely delicious. I love how well-organized the book is; it's easy to flip through and find recipes that fit the mood or the match. I've already marked several cocktails that my husband and I plan to try with our fellow DINK couples.
Pickleball is the sport right now, and this book blends the lifestyle and the cocktails perfectly. Each drink has a clever name, great ingredients, and a refreshing twist. I'm especially excited to try the Peach Honey Lob and Fault So Fresh—both sound like instant favorites. With so many creative recipes, this book is sure to keep me hydrated (and happily tipsy) all summer long.
Thank you for the ARC—this was such a fun read and will be a staple in our summer entertaining!

The photos in this cocktail book are adorable, themed after pickleball. So for a coffee table book it would be great. But the actual recipes use hard to find items, and I didn’t get the overall concept combining these two themes which wasn’t really explained.
Thanks to the publisher for providing an ARC for an honest review.
