Finalist, Tales of the Cocktail Spirited Award for Best New Book on
Drinks Culture, History, or Spirits“An impassioned case against a
senseless system . . . Come for the cocktail recipes, stay for the
call to arms.” —Clay Risen, author of American Whiskey,
Bourbon, and Rye “A potent, thought-provoking mixture of fun and
‘what the hell’ awareness.” —Lew Bryson, author of Whiskey
Master Class Across this nation, in breweries, liquor stores, bars,
and even our own homes, we’re being stripped of our most basic
boozy rights. Thanks to Prohibition and its 100-year hangover, some
of the most outdated, bizarre, and laughably loony laws still on
the books today center around alcohol and how we drink it. In New
Mexico, $1 margaritas are illegal. In Utah, cocktails must be mixed
behind a barrier called the “Zion curtain.” And forget about
happy hour in Massachusetts—the state banned it in 1984. But we
don’t have to stand down and dry up—it’s time to take to
liquid protest. Created by the nation’s leading alcohol policy
expert, Give Me Liberty and Give Me a Drink! combines the
thirst-inducing pleasure of trivia with 65 recipes for classic and
innovative cocktails. So arm yourself with a mezcal-based One Pint,
Two Pint, inspired by Vermont’s ban on beer pitchers, or The
Boiling Point, a beer cocktail that is highly illegal in Virginia,
and get ready to drink your way to a revolution on the rocks.
