"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
