📝 Description: Straight Up or on the Rocks: The Story of the American Cocktail (Revised)

The cocktail is as old as the nation that invented it, yet until this entertaining and authoritative account, its story had never been fully told. Grimes traces the evolution of American drink from the concoctions of the Colonial era to the frozen margarita, spiking his meticulously researched narrative with arresting details, odd facts, and colorful figures.
