Edward Gorey’s humorously macabre art has delighted readers for more than fifty years. From The Epiplectic Bicycle to The Gashlycrumb Tinies, Gorey’s work has gone on to inspire the likes of Tim Burton, Daniel Handler (Lemony Snicket), Jim Henson, and more.

A Celebration of Edward Gorey’s Legacy

In honor of the 100th anniversary of Edward Gorey’s birth, and created in collaboration with his estate, Uneasy Elixirs presents a delectable collection of fifty Goreyesque potions, libations, nightcaps, and aperitifs. For the first time ever, fans can enjoy cocktails inspired by Gorey's characters and settings, including:

The Thumbfumble (inspired by The Curious Sofa)
Miss Quartermourning’s Grief (inspired by The Other Statue)
The B is for Basil Julep (inspired by The Gashlycrumb Tinies—yes, Gorey’s ghastly children get their tipples, too)
The Q.R.V. No. 222, as well as one of Gorey’s personal favorite concoctions.

Illustrated with original art from the Gorey archives and accompanied by glorious photography of these curious cocktails, Uneasy Elixirs is the ultimate gift for every tremulous tosspot and disquieted dipsomaniac who loves a slightly wicked spirit.
