Dragtails Summary

Dragtails: Fierce Cocktails Inspired by Drag Royalty by Raja Gemini

Just as raucous, ravishing and brimming with camp as the drag stars who inspired them, these 50 cocktails are destined for the spotlight.

With a foreword by drag legend and Drag Race superstar Raja Gemini, Dragtails will add a spring to your step, a bounce to your weave and a shimmer to your lip gloss.

Each Dragtail is brought to life with an inventive illustration that echoes the charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent of the particular queen that inspired it. Along with ingredients and methods, an ode to the artist explains the inspiration for the drink.

  • PB and Slay - a candy-sweet concoction inspired by the Willy Wonka for a whole generation of drag queens, RuPaul
  • Drunk in Love - a divalicious drink inspired by Cara Melle that is sweet, salty and sticky if you're nasty!
  • Absolutely Alien - a fabulous twist on a classic Gin and Lemonade that is as blue and pink as Juno Birch
