A Proper Drink is the first-ever book to tell the full, unflinching story of the contemporary craft cocktail revival. Award-winning writer Robert Simonson interviewed more than 200 key players from around the world, and the result is a rollicking (if slightly tipsy) story of the characters-bars, bartenders, patrons, and visionaries-who in the last 25 years have changed the course of modern drink-making.
