Brian Morgenstern and Teresa Davis of Virginia, both of whom worked in the Trump White House, have an array of memorable stories to share about how they met during the Trump presidency, what they accomplished in their respective roles — and lessons learned throughout the process.

Most of all, they say it's "the human moments" that stood out — and still do.

The couple's wedding is in June, with the book they've co-authored following closely on its heels. Among the book's offerings: delicious new recipes.

"You’ll read behind-the-scenes stories and have the tools to host an amazing dinner party."

"Vignettes and Vino: Dinner Table Stories from the Trump White House with Recipes & Cocktail Pairings" will be published this fall by Post Hill Press.

Among their exclusive offerings to Fox News Digital from the book (available now for pre-order) is a citrus sangria cocktail for spring and summer celebrations.

"We wrote about our experience at the White House during a global pandemic, an economic crisis, riots across the country, a presidential election and the confirmation of a Supreme Court justice," Brian Morgenstern told Fox News Digital in a recent interview.

"We wanted to share our nation’s history with our readers in the way that we share our stories with our friends and families." He said the experience of sharing these stories is paired with faith — as well as good food and drink.

"Our stories are funny, some are poignant, others are informative — but one thing is for sure: This book is useful!" It includes practical tips for hosting dinner parties.

Teresa Davis, co-owner of Win the Future Strategies, LLC, comes from a military family. She is a former senior communications adviser at the White House for Operation Warp Speed, as well as a former Pentagon deputy press secretary during the Trump administration.

"Obviously, the outcome [of Election Night 2020] was not what we wanted — but we made wonderful memories that night all the same."

She also served as communications director for Rep. Tom Cole, R-Okla. — and competed in the Miss America pageant as Miss District of Columbia 2014.

Of this cocktail recipe they've shared with Fox News Digital exclusively, she told Fox News Digital, "This recipe is paired with my story in the book about Election Night 2020 at the White House."

She added, "We made festive cocktails and enjoyed the evening with friends from throughout the administration."

"Obviously," she added, "the outcome was not what we wanted — but we made wonderful memories that night all the same."

Brian Morgenstern added, "We tested this one on some friends before it went into the book — it was a huge hit."

The couple believe that nothing pairs better with a spicy red dish than a light, sweet, bubbly beverage such as a citrus sangria.
