Book Description for Drinks and Zakuski- Amazon''Drinks and Zakuski is an inspiration for a celebration. The recipes for the drinks and appetizers, many with a Russian influence, let you use familiar ingredients in a creative way. And the stories about Maria's experience growing up in the San Francisco Russian -American community adds a personal touch to what you choose to cook. You can share the stories with family and friends while you enjoy these special treats!'' - Carol Blackman, Native San Franciscan''I've eaten Maria's marvelous appetizers at her Russian Easter parties Her Lemon Vodka is sensational! I like her cooking so much that I bought the print version of this book for my daughter and son-in-law who appreciate fine cuisine. What I like the most, is that the recipes, for the most part, are very easy to make.'' - Stephanie Batanides, Sonoma Valley, CA''This book is so endearing- filled with traditions that make you feel like you want to be a part of the Russian culture by cooking, eating and sharing with friends and family.'' - Dianne Ryan, SonomaThis is the second in a series of digital memoir cookbooks from my collection of Russian-American and international recipes that comprise The Lobanovsky Family Table. Drinks and Zakuski features six international beverages, including Lemon Vodka, the most popular drink I have ever poured. Served with any of my 19 favorite mouth-watering zakuski (appetizers), and you have a party! The worldwide cultural influences surrounding me in San Francisco evolved into recipes and stories of my personal, historic culinary adventure. By enjoying the delicious food and drink in this book, perhaps you too will recall some very precious times in your life that food so vividly can bring to mind.Russian cuisine is not as well-known as other international favorites like Italian, French or Chinese. This is your chance to surprise your family or book club with something out of the ordinary. Lemon Vodka is the perfect drink to go with any appetizer. Try it with Paté Dorian, Cheese Bahars, Eggplant Caviar or Salt-Cured Salmon on buttered dark rye toasts. Believe me, you'll have them laughing, enjoying life, and asking you to make more!

Maria Lobanovsky was born in San Francisco to Russian immigrants who settled in California after touring with the USO during and post WWII. Her childhood experiences and cuisine were influenced by the Russian American community and the highly diverse population of the Bay Area. For Maria, dinner was a special time in the family's day for relaxing, eating, and sharing adventures.

Originally, The Lobanovsky Family Table was written as a memoir cookbook and intended to be a Christmas gift to her son. It includes over 230 favorite family recipes, many with amusing stories, which are being converted into a series of books by category. The collection on Amazon has grown to include The Russian Sweet Tooth, Drinks and Zakuski, Beyond Beef Stroganoff, Beyond Borscht and Beets, Fish and Other Friends From Land and Sea, Things Made of Dough, and coming soon is Cakes, Cookies and Sweet Pirogs.

So many celebrations center around food. Food can be a cultural experience or a catalyst to bring back childhood memories. Maria's books do both.

"May dinner become a little more special. Carve out time to create treasured moments for your family and friends, or we all run the risk of having too few of either. May you live your life more fully. From my family to yours, enjoy!" - Maria
