The Dittohead's Guide To Adult Beverages (ISBN 0-89526-012-3) is a political humor book for fans of The Rush Limbaugh Show, also known as dittoheads. Written by Britt Gillette, a longtime fan of the show, the book catalogues the humorous on-air jargon frequently used by Rush Limbaugh (the term adult beverages itself being a part of the Limbaugh vocabulary). The book is satirically critical of liberal politicians such as Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, and Howard Dean. The humor takes the form of actual adult beverage recipes named after things on the show. Examples are Environmentalist Wacko Whiskey (requiring the use of an evil capitalist-concocted freezer) and Affirmative Action Ambrosia (requiring the use of dark rum over light rum).
A guide to the Limbaugh Lexicon appears in the introduction. The remainder of the book is composed of conservatively-slanted recipes with funny ingredients and humorous mixing instructions. An origin is also listed for each recipe.
