I'm just here for the drinks : a guide to spirits, drinking and more than 100 extraordinary cocktails

Sother Teague, one of New York's most knowledgeable bartenders and Wine Enthusiast's Mixologist of the Year (2017), presents a brief history of both classic and lesser-known spirits with modern-day wit and old-school bar wisdom, accompanied by easy-to-mix drink recipes you'll soon commit to memory. Better than bellying up to some of the world's best bars with a veteran bartender, this series of essays and conversations on all things alcohol aims to reveal how the joy of drinking changed both history and culture - and will likely inspire you to make a little history of your own. After all, no retelling of a great caper or revolutionary event ever started with the phrase, "So a bunch of guys are all eating salad". This hardcover collection of timeless tips, insight from industry pros and 100+ recipes is more than just a cocktail book: It's a manifesto for living a more spirited life
