The Drunken Botanist Bound in Leather

The Drunken Botanist in Leather has been hailed as a New York Times Bestseller.

 Throughout the centuries, humans have ingeniously and desperately transformed a dizzying variety of herbs, flowers, trees, fruits, and fungi into alcohol, including sake from rice, Scotch from barley, tequila from agave, rum from sugarcane, and bourbon from corn. In this book, Amy Stewart provides a comprehensive exploration of the fascinating biology, chemistry, history, etymology, and mixology behind these alcohol-producing plants. Discover the cultural significance and unique contributions of each ingredient, and learn how to cultivate them in your own garden. With over fifty drink recipes, you'll be the life of any party.
