G'day. I'm Scotty.
Australian author. Professional bad decision maker. The bloke responsible for everything on this site.
If you got here from a recipe, welcome to the rest of the place.
Pick a door
Why are you here?
Three honest answers, three useful destinations. Pick whichever one is more true.
For the cocktails
You're in the right place. Hundreds of cocktail and shot recipes here, mostly with the kind of names that get a side-eye at family Christmas. Some classics done properly. Some weird things you've never seen.
For the funny stories
I write books. Mostly true stories about my own bad decisions. Travel disasters. Cooking disasters. The time my father-in-law watched me serve a chicken so raw it was technically still a biohazard.
For the bloke himself
Fair enough. The short version: Australian, well-travelled, has CRPS (chronic pain), redirected from triathlons to writing, hates coffee, three rules to a happy life that he's broken twice.
All the books
The full library
Eleven books. Mostly cookbooks (Cheers Mate, Flames & Feasts, Heat & Serve, Sweets & Treats, Twirl & Taste, Rise & Shine), and a few comedic memoirs (Hold My Ducks, What The Duck, Duck Yeah, Travel Fails & Epic Tales, The Strong One Is Tired). Click any of them to learn more or buy.
Or just bookmark the site and come back when you're hungover.
Cheers,
Scotty
