Coconuts & Carnage: Fifty Fiery Originals from the Emerald City  is a battle-tested collection of 50 modern tropical cocktails built on  classic structure. From disciplined tributes to the tiki canon to originals that lean into fire and funk, every recipe hits hard—and holds up in service. This isn’t a history lesson or a glossy escape. It’s a working field manual for cocktails that earn their place on the bar.
