Savor the taste of paradise with Margaritaville: The Cookbook
Warm sun, cool drink, and nowhere to be—that’s Margaritaville! It’s a celebration of relaxation and an invitation to enjoy good food and good company. Margaritaville: The Cookbook is filled with recipes that bring the flavor of island living and the spirit of Jimmy Buffett's iconic song straight into your home.
The first ever cookbook from the beloved world of Margaritaville features laid-back favorites like the explosively good Volcano Nachos and the heaven-on-earth-with-an-onion-slice Cheeseburger in Paradise, alongside more sophisticated options that will wow your guests (Coho Salmon in Lemongrass-Miso Broth, anyone?). With its combination of recipes, stories, and gorgeous full color food and lifestyle photographs throughout, it is sure to put you in a Margaritaville state of mind!
Margaritaville isn’t confined to single spot on the map -- the recipes draw inspiration from around the world, from Jerk Chicken to Tuna Poke with Plantain Chips and Jimmy’s Jammin’ Jambalaya. And we've got you all covered, from family-friendly Aloha Hotdogs to drool-worthy Vegetarian Burgers.
It's 5 o'clock somewhere and no vacation is complete without a cocktail—preferably a margarita, of course! Margaritaville: The Cookbook is loaded with drink recipes to inspire your blissful island cocktail hour—from Jimmy's Perfect Margarita and Paradise Palomas to Cajun Bloody Mary's and the quintessential Key West Coconut and Lime Frozen Margarita.
I love Margaritaville for the main reason that if I am there, I am on vacation as there are none anywhere near where I live. The book that I got for reviewing was a “sampler” of the full-length cookbook but nonetheless I found recipes that I want to try (especially the drinks and desserts) and some I know I would have to do some serious ingredient sourcing for as I know I cannot easily get Lionfish here in my corner of Canada. The index of the book means that I will for sure be looking to by it next time I am I Atlantic City or NOLA drinking some seriously amazing/ not-available-in-Canada tequila and eating some really good food, parrot-head style.
