IACP AWARD WINNER

Craft cocktail maven Alba Huerta succinctly tells the story of drinking in the South through themes such as ""Trading with the Enemy,"" ""the Rural South,"" ""the Drinking Society,"" ""the Saltwater South,"" and others that anchor the menu at her destination bar, Julep. With historical overviews, 15 bar snack recipes, and 65 bespoke cocktail recipes, ranging from the iconic Mint Julep (and variations such as Rye Julep and Sparkling Julep) to modern inventions like the Snakebit Sprout, Liquid Currency, and Hot July, Huerta recounts the tales and traditions that define drinking culture in the American South today. Approximately 80 evocative cocktail and location photographs convey the romance and style that distinguish Julep and serve to inspire beverage enthusiasts to relive Southern history via the bar cart.

Reviews for Julep: Southern Cocktails Refashioned

""Alba Huerta's ode to bourbon, mint, and crushed ice (my three favorite things) is Southern hospitality at its finest."" --Andrew Knowlton, Bon Appetit ""Heavy on the Southern storytelling and even heavier on the bourbon, Huerta's book is a history of drinking in the states where the sun always shines."" --ESQUIRE “It’s an ideal way to add Southern hospitality to a home bar.” --EATER
