Understanding is developed into application and presented in a way that brewers can utilize, regardless of background. If you are a beer geek like me, I'm sure you'll find reading about brewing science quite entertaining. If you are more of an artist, don't worry: each exploration wraps up into practical application of the concept. If you have visited my blog, much of this information will look familiar. The most valuable posts have been included in this book. Each one carefully edited, and in some cases expanded on and even re-written. In addition, some of the information in this book you will not be able to find on my blog, or anywhere else for that matter

"Are you looking for great ways to include more water in your diet?"

"What about fantastic homemade fruit infused waters that take only 5 minutes to make, and are chock full of easy to absorb vitamins and minerals?"

Did you know a handful of blueberries a day can not only aid in reducing belly fat, lower blood pressure, protect the heart and brain, boost memory but also act as a natural anti-depressant? They also contain the highest antioxidant capacity of all fruit - which has been found to stifle aging and free radical damage. Making your own fruit infused waters at home allows you to receive the full benefits of each fruit and herb ingredient, as well as the added benefit of knowing exactly what you are consuming.

Commercial Vitamin Waters commonly seen in stores and vending machines contain a lot of nasty ingredients (artificial and 'natural' flavourings, artificial colours, artificial sweeteners, synthetic vitamins and preservatives). While these may 'taste great', you are left paying a small fortune for what is essentially glorified sugar water. Given their sugar content, they are truly no better than having a soda.

We all need to drink more water, Infused: 26 Spa Inspired Natural Vitamin Waters makes this easier by sorting the recipes in an easy to use format. You'll find natural electrolyte boosters, sports waters, waters that aid in sleep and relaxation, weight loss and detox, healing waters, waters for complexion, and more.

These recipes can be consumed by both adults and kids alike, and can be easily and safely used by those following gluten free, dairy free, vegetarian, vegan, paleo, and raw food diets. This book is also for those who are detoxing, cleansing or looking to lose weight. The recipes included in this book are free from common allergens and additives such as dairy, soy, refined sugar, synthetic vitamins, preservatives, high fructose corn syrup, and artificial colours.

A Manhattan or a Sazerac; neat, on the rocks, or with a splash of soda - no matter how it's served up, whiskey is synonymous with the poet's inspiration and the devil's spirit. Be it bourbon, rye, corn, Irish, or Scotch, whiskey has an infamous and celebrated history from a sometimes lethal, herb-infused concoction to a high-quality, meticulously crafted liquor. In Whiskey, Kevin R. Kosar delivers an informative, concise narrative of the drink's history, from its obscure medieval origins to the globally traded product that it is today. Focusing on three nations - Scotland, Ireland, and America - Kosar charts how the technique of distillation moved from ancient Egypt to the British Isles. Contrary to popular claims, there were no good old days of whiskey: before the twentieth century, consumers could never be sure just what was being poured in their cup - unscrupulous profiteers could distil anything into booze and pawn it off as whiskey. Eventually, government and industry established legal definitions of what whiskey is and how it could be made, allowing for the distinctive styles of whiskey known today. Whiskey explains what whiskey is, how it is made, and how the types of whiskey differ. With a list of suggested brands and classic cocktail recipes for the thirsty reader, this book is perfect for drink and food enthusiasts and history lovers alike.

You cannot separate Russians from their vodka or vodka from Russia. For over 600 years, this proud Slavic culture has - for good or ill - been inextricably bound up with their national drink. This has been expressed in literature, song, politics, history and every aspect of popular culture. In this comprehensive, quixotic and addictive book, Edwin Trommelen explores all facets of the Russian obsession with vodka. Peering chiefly through the lenses of history and literature, Trommelen offers up an appropriately complex and rich portrait. In addition, most all of the hundreds of wonderful quotes from literature, theater and poetry are presented in both their Russian original and English translation, making this also a useful guide to improving one's Russian through the lens of this ancient drink.

"Thoughtfully conceived and very well written, this is essential somm reading."-The Somm Journal "This is the most important wine book of the year, perhaps in many years."-The Seattle Times "Crisply written, impeccably researched, balanced if fundamentally enthusiastic, scholarly but accessible, and full of unexpected details and characters."-The World of Fine Wine No wine category has seen more dramatic growth in recent years than American Rhone-variety wines. Winemakers are devoting more energy, more acreage, and more bottlings to Rhone varieties than ever before. The flagship Rhone red, Syrah, is routinely touted as one of California's most promising varieties, capable of tremendous adaptability as a vine, wonderfully variable in style, and highly expressive of place. There has never been a better time for American Rhone wine producers. American Rhone is the untold history of the American Rhone wine movement. The popularity of these wines has been hard fought; this is a story of fringe players, unknown varieties, and longshot efforts finding their way to the mainstream. It's the story of winemakers gathering sufficient strength in numbers to forge a triumph of the obscure and the brash. But, more than this, it is the story of the maturation of the American palate and a new republic of wine lovers whose restless tastes and curiosity led them to Rhone wines just as those wines were reaching a critical mass in the marketplace. Patrick J. Comiskey's history of the American Rhone wine movement is both a compelling underdog success story and an essential reference for the wine professional.

There is no argument the margarita is the most popular cocktail in the United States. There are many stories as to its origin, which I will cover, but the popularity of the margarita has stemmed from its simple ingredients, ease of mixing, and refreshing taste.

Margaritas come in a variety of flavors and have a limited number of ingredient substitutions, which make them popular cocktails for parties, relaxing times, and even for nights out on the town.

In addition to the history of the margarita and providing recipes, this book will give you brief instructions for choosing a serving glass, salting or sugaring the rim, how to choose between frozen or on-the-rocks, choosing a garnish, making simple syrup, and converting margaritas to virgin margaritas.

Whether you prefer the original margarita with tequila, triple sec, and lime juice or a more flavorful margarita, such as strawberry, raspberry, watermelon, or key lime, this book has you covered. Also included are some of the more extreme margaritas that include, but not limited to, the jalapeno margarita, Tabasco margarita, and even a margarita made with Jack Daniel's.

Pour you a fresh margarita, and enjoy reading through this book.
