Julep: Southern Cocktails Refashioned

With these sixty-five historically relevant cocktail recipes, ranging from the iconic Mint Julep (and variations such as Rye Julep and Sparkling Julep) to modern inventions, such as the Snake-bit Sprout, Liquid Currency, and Hot July, craft cocktail maven Alba Huerta recounts the tales and traditions that have shaped cocktail culture in the American South today.  Evocative photographs convey the romance and style that distinguish Huerta’s destination craft cocktail bar, Julep, and extend her invitation to slow down and savor a well-made drink.  And, in case you need a bite to go along with your drink, Huerta includes recipes for a dozen bar snacks.  C’mon in, and have a sip of history via the bar cart.
