Chappy Hour: Classic and Modern Warhol Cocktails + No Work Finished Here

A few years ago, Liz Worth started working on a project that translated each page of Andy Warhol’s A, a factory novel into a work of poetry. Collectively known as No Work Finished Here (BookThug, 2015) Worth’s poems allow a new generation of readers to access the artist’s ideas. In order to properly appreciate the work that went into No Work Finished Here, I thought it was appropriate that we share two Warhol Cocktails – the first is more sophisticated with traditional liqueurs. The second is a very modern twist.

The Classic WarholWhat you Need:What to Do:Fill your cocktail shaker half-way with crushed ice. Add Cognac, Benedictine, Lillet Blanc and bitters to shaker. Cover and shake vigorously for 30 seconds.
