An exploration of the beloved cocktails, spirits, and bars that
define each state in America The United States of Cocktails is a
celebration of the cocktail history of every state in America.
After traveling around this great nation and sampling many of the
drinks on offer, cocktail authority Brian Bartels serves up a book
that is equal parts recipe collection, travelogue, historical
miscellany, bartender's manual, and guide to bar culture today-with
bar and drink recommendations that are sure to come in handy
whether or not you are crossing state lines. Delving into the
colorful stories behind the creation of drinks we love, this book
includes more than 100 recipes alongside spirited analysis of each
state's unique contributions to cocktail culture. Filled with
colorful illustrations, The United States of Cocktails is an
opinionated and distinctively designed love letter to the spirits,
bars, and people who have created and consumed the iconic drinks
that inspire us and satisfy our thirst.
Gone are the days when a lonely bottle of Angostura bitters held
court behind the bar. A cocktail renaissance has swept across the
country, inspiring in bartenders and their thirsty patrons a new
fascination with the ingredients, techniques, and traditions that
make the American cocktail so special. And few ingredients have as
rich a history or serve as fundamental a role in our beverage
heritage as bitters.
Author and bitters enthusiast Brad Thomas Parsons traces the
history of the world's most storied elixir, from its earliest
"snake oil" days to its near evaporation after Prohibition to its
ascension as a beloved (and at times obsessed-over) ingredient on
the contemporary bar scene. Parsons writes from the front lines of
the bitters boom, where he has access to the best and boldest new
brands and flavors, the most innovative artisanal producers, and
insider knowledge of the bitters-making process.
Whether you're a professional looking to take your game to the
next level or just a DIY-type interested in homemade potables,
Bitters has a dozen recipes for customized blends--ranging from
Apple to Coffee-Pecan to Root Beer bitters--as well as tips on
sourcing ingredients and step-by-step instructions fit for amateur
and seasoned food crafters alike.
Also featured are more than seventy cocktail recipes that showcase
bitters' diversity and versatility: classics like the Manhattan (if
you ever get one without bitters, send it back), old-guard
favorites like the Martinez, contemporary drinks from Parsons's own
repertoire like the Shady Lane, plus one-of-a-kind libations from
the country's most pioneering bartenders. Last but not least, there
is a full chapter on cooking with bitters, with a dozen recipes for
sweet and savory bitters-infused dishes.
Part recipe book, part project guide, part barman's manifesto,
Bitters is a celebration of good cocktails made well, and of the
once-forgotten but blessedly rediscovered virtues of bitters.

From the James Beard Award-winning author of Bitters and Amaro comes this poignant, funny, and often elegiac exploration of the question, What is the last thing you'd want to drink before you die?, with bartender profiles, portraits, and cocktail recipes.
NAMED ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR BY CHICAGO TRIBUNE
Everyone knows the parlor game question asked of every chef and food personality in countless interviews: What is the last meal you'd want to eat before you die? But what does it look like when you pose the question to bartenders? In Last Call, James Beard Award-winning author Brad Thomas Parsons gathers the intriguing responses from a diverse range of bartenders around the country, including Guido Martelli at the Palizzi Social Club in Philadelphia (he chooses an extra-dry Martini), Joseph Stinchcomb at Saint Leo in Oxford, Mississippi (he picks the Last Word, a pre-Prohibition-era cocktail that's now a cult favorite), and Natasha David at Nitecap in New York City (she would be sipping an extra-salty Margarita). The resulting interviews and essays reveal a personal portrait of some of the country's top bartenders and their favorite drinks, while over 40 cocktail recipes and stunning photography make this a keepsake for barflies and cocktail enthusiasts of all stripes.
